Mozart Arias

Raúl Giménez, tenor
Orchestra of the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden
John Brown, leader
Barry Wordsworth, conductor

The Argentinian tenor Raúl Giménez has established a reputation as one of the most outstanding lyric tenors to have emerged in recent years. This recording of Donizetti and Bellini arias followed the great critical acclaim for his disc of Rossini arias.

Perhaps the most positive outcome of Mozart’s childhood tours across the map of Europe, was his absorption, at a very early age, of the diverse musical styles and traditions of the various territories he visited. So it was by the age of nine the child paragon was already well-versed in the skills of vocal composition, having developed not only competency in setting words to music, but also an understanding of the potential of music to heighten the drama of declamatory texts.
