Mozart in 1772

21 November 2022 – Cadogan Hall, 7.30pm

Our ground-breaking MOZART 250 series gathers momentum with this effervescent survey of music composed 250 years ago by the 16-year-old Mozart, with two vivacious symphonies and a charmingly elegant keyboard concerto supplemented by Giunia’s four arias from Lucio Silla. These rarely performed showcases incorporate the most spectacularly virtuosic, technically challenging and hair-raisingly exciting vocal music that Mozart ever wrote, and are here performed by British soprano Louise Alder, one of the leading Mozart singers of her generation.

There will be a free pre-performance talk by Ian Page at 6.15pm.
