The cover image shows a wise irony. A singer with clever and delightful frown lines, a collection of music volumes and a bust of Mozart. “Madman” is the genius of the composer and, above all, his amazing female characters: always at the extremes of unconditional love, personal self-denial, and human experiences! Especially in Da Ponte's operas, Mozart pushed the musical forms of his time into the future with realistic accents. Antonello Manacorda brings this out through the Potsdam Chamber Academy in a historically informed way and with an almost Hoffmann-like depth of voice, while Golda Schulz approaches the characters with a clearly defined understanding. Her beautiful voice sounds strong and perfect in all registers and features very good features. But she firmly rejects the leap to metaphysical flash. This is how you hear the perfect Mozart soprano with perfect Instagram potential.
