Glass Shatterers! Edda Moser - Mozart: APOLLO ET HYACINTHUS, High F

~The "Glass Shatterers!" series focuses on sopranos who sustain High F, or sing higher. THE MUSIC: Mozart wrote the opera Apollo et Hyacinthus (K.38) when he was 11 years old. This is Hyacinthus's first aria "Saepe terrent Numina" sung here in a German version by the legendary dramatic coloratura Edda Moser. It's a very long aria in full, so I've only included the final section, starting with a cadenza to a High D that leads into the da capo repeat with a sustained High F. Mathieu Lange, conductor Berlin, ca. 1980
