    Overview

    The leading countertenor sings Gluck and Mozart, including some of the latter’s songs in new guise, as well as rare operatic arias and a concert aria, while Mozart’s recently rediscovered contemporary Joseph Bologne, Chevalier de Saint-Georges (1745-99), is celebrated with one of his symphonies.
