Never one to shy away from the spotlight, Mozart knew how to bring the drama.
As a master of opera, he had a knack for storytelling, bringing his characters to (larger-than) life through outrageous tales of love, loss, deception and even assassination. Danielle de Niese (‘Opera’s coolest opera singer’, New York Times Magazine) shows off Mozart’s theatrical skills with a selection of arias from his most-loved operas including Don Giovanni and Idomeneo.
Mozart’s love for drama didn’t just stop at opera. If turmoil had a soundtrack, it would undoubtably be his Symphony No.40. Oozing with anguish, the symphony shows Mozart to be in touch with his emotional side as he challenges the orchestra to battle through 35 minutes of pure angst. Though that all might sounds a bit miserable, it makes for an action-packed listening experience – there’s a reason it holds its place as one of Mozart’s most popular pieces.
