Jean-Christophe Spinosi: conductor; Renata Pokupic: mezzo soprano

Favourite arias by two of the greatest operatic composers of their respective ages, sung by an acclaimed young mezzo of the moment. This concert is a must for any opera lover – and it comes with the symphonic bonus of Haydn’s hugely entertaining ‘Bear’ symphony, full of rustic influences. Mozart’s ‘Haffner’ symphony, on the other hand, is a suitably grand work written for one of the grandest of the great Salzburg families.
