Bicket Conducts All-Mozart

Conductor Harry Bicket returns with an all-Mozart program ranging from world-renowned warhorses to lesser-known--but no less deserving--selections. Symphony No. 34 boasts a snazzy opening fanfare that Mozart liked enough to recycle in two later opera overtures, while the bewitching Symphony No. 38 is nicknamed "Prague" in honor of the city where its premiere took place to rave reviews. Mozart collaborated on three operas--The Marriage of Figaro, Don Giovanni, and Così fan tutte--with the Venetian poet and adventurer Lorenzo da Ponte. Soprano Golda Schultz sings selections from all three.
