The complex historical drama of King Mitridate and his dysfunctional family isn't an obvious scenario for a hit opera, but Mozart made it one - and when he was aged just 14. His scintillating music for the star soprano is performed by Lucy Crowe alongside other soprano showpieces by Mozart in this programme from Bath MozartFest, including the magnificent tour-de-force, Exsultate, jubilate. Joining Lucy in Bath Abbey are celebrated Mozart interpreters, The English Concert under the baton of Harry Bicket. Nadja Zwiener is the soloist in Mozart's 5th Violin Concerto, notable for its fashionable imitations of "Turkish" style in the finale.
Recorded on 19th November at Bath Abbey, Bath
