Sublime testimony of love. Soprano Lisette Oropesa presents her solo debut album Ombra Compagna, a kaleidoscope of concert arias by Mozart, whose music is close to her heart. Written for important sopranos in his lifetime, these concert arias contain the most lush and virtuosic music Mozart composed for both voice and orchestra. The emotional center of the album is the aria "Ah, lo previdi," in which sublime music accompanies the journey between life and death as the spirit of a loved one slips away. For Oropesa, being an "ombra compagna" means being with someone in spirit, a comforting yet heartbreaking testimony of love. Lisette Oropesa is one of the most sought-after lyric coloratura sopranos of our time, having already triumphed in various roles at the most important houses in Europe and the United States. She will be accompanied by the multiple award-winning players of il pomo d'oro under the baton of Antonello Manacorda, a frequent guest at opera houses around the world.
