DE NIESE / ORCH OF THE AGE OF THE ENLIGHTENMENT / MACKERRAS - MOZART ALBUM

Danielle DeNiese made her Met debut as Barbarina in LE NOZZE DI FIGARO. At just 19, it was already clear that she was destined to be a major Mozart singer, with her extraordinary sensitivity to language and ability to communicate emotion through the expressive use of vocal color, not to mention her personal charisma, her star quality and the irresistible force of her personality. This recording of Mozart arias is thus a natural follow-up to the remarkable Handel album. Her partnership here with Sir Charles Mackerras lends her the wise and authoritative support of one of the great modern heroes of Mozart performance style and practice. It's an added bonus that in the only duet on this album L' ci darem la mano from Don GiovanniDanielle is reunited after ten years with the great Welsh bass-baritone Bryn Terfel, who had also been in the Figaro in which she made her Met debut. From the famously elaborate coloratura piece, Exsultate, jubilate to the ever famous concert piece Bella mia fiamma, addio!, Danielle displays her remarkable versatility and ability do demonstrate musical and emotional contrast. On Mozart Arias, she also explores other opera gems from world famous operas such as: Cosi fan tutte, Idomeneo, Don Giovanni, and more!
