Soprano Isabel Bayrakdarian has sung conventional operatic repertory, and also music connected to her Armenian heritage. Here, she seeks to combine the two, performing operatic arias connected with the Armenian King Tigrane/Tigranes II and embodying the role of his queen, Cleopatra. This was not the Egyptian queen but Cleopatra of Pontus (110-58 B.C.E.), the "other Cleopatra" of the album title. Bayrakdarian sings arias from three Tigrane/Cleopatra operas, one by Vivaldi (1724), one by Johann Adolf Hasse (1729), and one the young Gluck (1743). Hasse is placed first, probably because he gets the lion's share of the music on the album, but it might have been useful to place the arias in chronological order. Although the three operas were premiered in different cities (Rome, Naples, and Milan, respectively), they all use the same libretto, and it's entirely possible that the earlier ones were known to the later composers. Although only 19 years separate Vivaldi from Gluck, those two decades were a period of intense stylistic change, and Bayrakdarian has to negotiate the shift from the athletic Vivaldi to the more naturalistic style of Gluck, with Hasse right in the middle. This she generally does well, although her somewhat edgy voice works better in the Vivaldi. The strength of the album is the program, which is original, and which exposes some worthwhile music. The Hasse is especially strong, and the roots of the mature Gluck's style are audible in the three Gluck selections. Lovers of mid-18th century opera will want this in their collections.
