Medicine for the voice. Lovely expression. Great singing, thanks. Listening to whole opera now.

It truly is! Mozart’s music requires a strong technique and will expose flaws very easily. Medicine and a truth teller :-)

The greatest Mozart I ever heard was the Paris Opera production with Georg Solti conducting Jules Bastin, Federica VonStade in the Versailles production by Giorgio Strehler when they came to the Kennedy Center. Of special note: Norman Treigle sang the Count at City Opera who I remember for his stage presence. Paris Opera was stupendous. Zaide is a fragile work never staged at The Met.
