Favourite Mozart Arias [c18] (Decca / Kirkby) [MP3] [twistle]

For those who are not familiar with Kirkby (do such people exist?), she is a soprano who usually is recorded singing from the Baroque and Renaissance repertoire. Do not, therefore, expect some warbling diva who thinks they are singing Verdi. She has a much purer and lighter sound that is ideally suited to both her usual early music as well as these Mozart arias.

Personally, I loathe the sound of operatic voices, and yet I can call this CD a gem (one of many by Kirkby - and other EM specialists like Tubb and Bott - in my opinion!). But if you're still convinced you'll download something you're going to hate, listen to .....
