I thought Ms. Tilling, the soprano, was a bit cold dramatically for the Susanna part in "The Marriage of Figaro" at the opera last summer, but musically her voice is just about perfect for Mozart, and her rendition of the aria with the quartet of woodwinds was wonderful.

I really wanted to make it to this, but couldn't, so it was nice to at least read about it.<BR/><BR/>The "Et incarnatus est" from that mass ranks among my very favorite soprano arias. Did they do justice to it in this concert?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11380345.post-1169432948255300602007-01-21T18:29:00.000-08:002007-01-21T18:29:00.000-08:00What a lucky evening.

Funny, I've been listening to Mozart's Mass In C Minor on cd this week, simply because it's one I pulled out... to me HEAVEN would be listening to the massive choral QUI TOLLIS PECCATA MUNDI (Largo)- about 7 minutes long-- the 6th presentation in the Mass.... love that Mass only TOO MANY shrieking soprano pieces.. I'd love to hear that Mass with male voices doing the soprano solos...... as I age, my ears can not take these high-pitched noises from sopranos...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
