This is not Mozart's first opera. Apollo et Hyacinthus is, (1767).

Yvonne Kenny's "Nel grave tormento" is definitely my favorite of the bunch: power, lyricism, and coloratura happily wedded in a perfect performance, ably supported by the genius of Ponnelle and Harnoncourt.

LOVE Ponelle's films of these Baroque & Classical operas. I have not seen this one before although I am a huge fan of his Orfeo film.

Wow... Just wow... This is such exquisite singing that I have nothing else to say...
-
One of the most exquisite pieces Mozart ever wrote. The appogiatura on "tormento" is a remarkable detail that just makes the phrase ache.
-
And the winner is...
Yvonne Kenny...
