In this star concert, she joins the leading period performance specialist Harry Bicket for a programme of Mozart arias that includes intricate showstoppers like ‘Martern aller Artern’ and Exsultate, jubilate alongside more serene pieces from works that are perhaps a little less familiar. It’s a chance to explore the full range of the composer’s genius in the company of one of the great emerging Mozartians
