@anneayer It must be true because this aria and much of the other music for the part of Fiordiligi is very difficult to sing. The voice has to go way up or down like an elevator! It's crazy music to sing. He must have hated her and wanted to see her break under pressure or something. I wonder why he hated her ? Meanwhile, he did love soprano Katarina Cavalieri, who was Salieri's mistress (in the movie Amadeus she was Mozart's fling before marriage to Konstanza).

My voice teacher told me yesterday that Mozart hated, Adriana Ferrarese (the girl he wrote Fiordiligi's part for) haha! Poor girl. But this aria is still gorgeous, and Elisabeth Schwarzkopf is as always amazing.

@Jvanella83 this is an extremely difficult work

Certified Intergalactic!

I am a little bit surprised that nobody mentions the other great Elisabeth (Grümmer fo course), which, in my opinion, and in this aria, has given far better renditions than our dear glamourous Mrs Schwarzkopf...

Schwarzkopf's Fiordiligi is far superior than Gundula Janowitz. Gundula's lackluster voice doesn't have the shades and dimensions for this aria especially. Schwarzkopf showcases her chest register gloriously and yet maintains soprano status! She knew how to sing Mozart to perfection. Brava Schwatzkopf
A small correction: Schwarzkopf

Well that's embarrassing. Now we all know I don't speak German.
