June 1, 2015 (Classic FM)

The 2015 release of the Scottish Chamber Orchestra's "Mozart: Opera Arias & Overtures" has been named Best Album of the Week by ClassicFM in the UK, which prides itself as the classical music radio station with the largest audience in the world, at nearly 6 million listeners each week.

This sparkling recording features the Scottish Chamber Orchestra under Christian Baldini conducting a personal selection of arias from six of Mozart’s well-loved operas, alongside their respective overtures. The soprano Elizabeth Watts, winner of the 2006 Kathleen Ferrier prize, is the featured soprano and she brings character and depth of understanding to her performance.
