Press Reviews
"Superb - a masterclass in the vocal arts, how to conduct Mozart and how to direct a film of the occasion...director Brian Large captures a great singer at the height of her powers guided by the inspirational Harnoncourt. Bartoli sings five arias in her inimitable way followed by Harnoncourt's illuminating performance of the 'Prague' Symphony. Add to this two neat features on how the concert was recorded and prepared, plus a superb booklet by Misha Donat, and you have a very classy package indeed." (Classic fM)
"Bartoli in fine form - one of the best recorded concerts on DVD." (Gramophone)
"Bartoli is on marvellous form. Her fabulous gifts as a Mozartian are too widely admired to need underlining; but her command of these somewhat neglected Mozart arias each one a full-scale operatic characterisation concentrated into a short space -has obviously been informed and enriched by her recent investigations into rare Vivaldi and Gluck opera seria."
