Mozart 22 · The Complete Operas
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart: All 22 operas from the 2006 Salzburg Festival 33 DVDs Deutsche Grammophon/Decca 07342213 (11/2006)
The Salzburg Festival, one of the world’s most renowned festivals, was in this Mozart year 2006 the scene of perhaps the most daring and outstanding achievement in both operatic as well as classical audio-visual history. In collaboration with Unitel, Deutsche Grammophon, Decca and TDK, the Salzburg Festival staged new productions of all 22 of Mozart’s staged works including operas, singspiele, and scenic fragments all of which were filmed for television broadcast and video release.
Due to the sheer number of operas, it was almost impossible to attend all these productions in Salzburg. The Mozart 22 DVD box – 51 hours of music video spread across 19 DVDs – makes it possible as well as sharing this remarkable artistic achievement with all opera lovers. A milestone!
The collection shows live recordings of the 22 operas with world stars like Anna Netrebko, Ildebrando D’Arcangelo, Thomas Hampson and Diana Damrau under conductors like Nikolaus Harnoncourt, Daniel Harding, Riccardo Muti and Ivor Bolton as well as background reports, interviews, rehearsals etc.
