For centuries it has guarded not only the relics of Jesus's cradle and swaddling-clothes, but also the celebrated marble Nativity Scene by Arnolfo di Cambio (1291), the first of it's kind in the history of art, thus earning it the title of \"Bethlehem of the West\".\r\n\r\nHere, in 1707, Alessandro Scarlatti was employed as maestro di cappella. Though a brief appointment - it lasted little more than a year - it was long enough to leave a deep impression, above all on the repertoire for Christmas, which was celebrated in the basilica with particular solemnity.\r\nFor the 300th anniversary of the composer's death, Giulio Prandi and Coro e Orchestra Ghislieri dedicate their fifth album for Arcana to Scarlatti's unique, splendid music for a Roman Christmas.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e UPC \u0026gt; 3760195735879 \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Format \u0026gt; New CD \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Label \u0026gt; Arcana Records \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Release Date \u0026gt; Release Date: 10.03.25 \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eShop online at \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/shop.darksiderecords.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eDarkside Records\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFollow us on \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/darksiderecordspk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eInstagram\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AEC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46644897448157,"sku":"3760195735879","price":145.0,"currency_code":"CNY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/1056\/6043\/files\/4445206-3422577.jpg?v=1754495660","url":"https:\/\/darksiderecords.myshopify.com\/products\/carlotta-colombo-scarlatti-christmas-at-the-bethlehem-of-the-west-music-from-santa-maria-maggiore-rome","provider":"Darkside Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
