Work: Scena and Rondo for Soprano, "Ch'io mi scordi di te?", K505

Melbourne-born soprano Sioghan Stagg returns for a one night stand with Kristian Bezuidenhout and the Freiburg Baroque Orchestra as part of their Australian tour.

It’s a rare treat to experience a performance given by two musicians at the height of their craft, especially when the performers in question are Cecilia Bartoli and Daniel Barenboim.

Finghin Collins and Rosanne van Sandwijk shine as soloists while the Orchestra of the 18th Century was as authoritative as ever under the baton of Kenneth Montgomery.
