Liaisons Arias By Mozart and Haydn and Cimarosa and

For her debut recording on Onyx, acclaimed Israeli soprano Chen Reiss has chosen a program of arias by Cimarosa, Haydn, Salieri and Mozart - all composers working in Vienna in the 1780s. Featured here are some of the 'insertion' arias by Haydn and Mozart, composed for use in operas by other composers such as Amfossi, Gugliemi and Martin - forgotten names today. So here, we have liaisons on stage - secret marriages and affairs, and liaisons between composers.
