Continuo Connect — Concert // The Mozartists: 1773 - a retrospective

This entertaining and illuminating selection of works composed in 1773 begins with one of Mozart’s most genial middle-period symphonies and ends with his first enduringly popular masterpiece. In between, Haydn’s famed horn writing takes the instrument to the almost ridiculous extremes of its compass, while soprano Alexandra Lowe, making her eagerly anticipated company début, sings arias that are by turns dramatic, lyrical and virtuosic.
