Works By Mozart / Classical Opera

Description:

First opera composed by Mozart, played on period instruments by the Mozartists and Classical Opera players. Following its successful full length opera, Artaxerxes, Classical Opera return with the first in an epic series of Mozart operas Apollo et Hyacinthus. Named in The Guardian as one of â??The Best Classical albums of 2012â??. Classical Opera has mounted two staged productions of Mozartâ??s Apollo et Hyacinthus (1998 and 2006), with both receiving wide critical acclaim; The Independent stated, â??Classical Operaâ??s polished debut in Apollo et Hyacinthus proved a pearl beyond price. Here was a work of staggering beauty riddled with sweet noises like Calibanâ??s enchanted isle.â? - WORKS BY MOZART / CLASSICAL OPERA

Apollo descends to earth and proposes marriage to Oebalus' daughter Melia. But when he goes to play discus with her brother Hyacinthus and his friend Zephyrus, a tragic accident occurs, after which nothing will ever be the same again... Classical Opera's series of Mozart's complete operas on Signum continues with the addition of Apollo et Hyacinthus, the second of his two stage works from 1767. The opera is sung in Latin, and is based on a colourful story from Ovid's Metamorphoses. Mozart was only eleven years old when he wrote this remarkable work, but the music is astonishingly accomplished, frequently anticipating the wonders of his maturity.
