20 years after her critically acclaimed début at the Salzburg Festival as Susanna In Mozart's Le Nozze Di Figaro, Dorothea Röschmann releases her first solo Mozart album, including famous arias from Don Giovanni and Le Nozze Di Figaro. Dorothea Röschmann is in the prime of her voice and referred to "as one of the leading Mozart sopranos today" (Der Tagesspiegel). The CD track list not only reflects her at her glorious best, but is also a dream come true for Dorothea: "Mozart is the reason I wanted to do opera," she says. "To be able to embody Mozart figures on stage, that was my dream. His characters are real human beings, with sadness and joy and wit. It's the whole picture that you get. It sounds strange, but signing Mozart really is a dream come true." (Dorothea Röschmann in interview with the Guardian). The album is recorded with the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra, conducted by their music director Daniel Harding.
"Röschmann, in her late forties, is at the height of her powers, with a strong voice which she can rein in, and without the coy pecking that German sopranos have often indulged in in Mozart. The trouble is that she is so winning an artist that almost all the arias made me want to listen to the complete opera from which they come, with her in the relevant role." (BBC Music)
