Info for Mozart: Exsultate, jubilate!

"Karine Deshayes, one of today’s most remarkable interpreters of Mozart, had yet to record his music. But that is remedied here! Together with the vocal and instrumental ensemble Les Paladins, she gives an outstanding performance in this programme of sacred and secular works, in which the motet Exsultate, jubilate! forms the centrepiece. Her rich, full-bodied voice taps directly into the roots of this highly virtuosic piece, originally written for a powerful, resonant soprano castrato tessitura.

Conducted by Jérôme Correas, the musicians complete the programme with a selection of early pieces by Mozart: several of his (unjustly underrated) Church Sonatas, his Symphony no. 17, a poetic Agnus Dei from the Vespers, and excerpts from the all too rarely heard Davide penintente and La Betulia liberata. Through his attention to contrast and his concern for expressivity, the conductor reveals the underlying theatricality of these works, unparalleled in their dramatic power."
