Compact disc buyers who purchased Andreas Scholl's disc of Handel arias on Harmonia Mundi barely a month before HEROES was released may wonder why they might need the present recital, with its further helping of Handel. One listen will stop the wondering! The key is the non-Handel portion of the program. That Scholl is excellent in baroque music is well-established by his recordings for Harmonia Mundi. But with selections by Hasse, Gluck, and a young Mozart, he demonstrates his talent for later music as well.
'Mitridate' and 'Ascanio in Alba' were written by Mozart in his teens for Italian theaters, and were met with great acclaim. In the process of composing, he worked with the singers of the theaters, tailoring the music to their demands. Scholl brings two of the results to life with great flair, and his rendition of "Venga pur, minacci e frema" brings the disc to a fitting close. Throughout the program, Scholl's tone and technique are aptly suited to the repertoire; sweet and smooth when necessary, elsewhere brilliant without being strident. Roger Norrington and the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment provide excellent period-instrument accompaniment.
