Mozart Arias

Mozart Arias contains a motet and seven concert arias composed by Mozart. Lenneke Ruiten has chosen arias that are all theatrical, but also very diverse.

‘Ah, lo previdi!’, for example, is dramatic and melancholic while ‘Ah, se in ciel, benigne stelle’ is real coloratura: rapid and spectacular. The differences between the young and the old Mozart can be heard clearly as well. His early arias have a simple structure while his later works are more chromatic and complex. However, all his works are brilliant, authentic, credible and perfectly structured.
