Ludwig struggles to keep up with Maestro Wolfie’s dictation - not even a baby on his hip can slow Mozart down 😏🥰

“Hurry up Ludwig, I haven’t got all day - this score won’t write itself!”

Classical music’s hottest DILF 😎

The commission recently I’ve been working on from the school requires. The performance happens at the end of this month.

Since we’re spending this week on a stroll down memory lane (M is for Mozart and also for Memories, right?), I’ll admit that a rich source of memories for me when it comes to Mozart call back to my senior year in college, when I played the Countess in our department’s production of Le Nozze di Figaro. Mozart’s ensemble writing in opera is spectacular, to say the least, but while people talk a lot about the second act and fourth act finales, one of my favorite, less discussed pieces is this second act Terzetto, “Susanna, or via, sortite,” a celebration of anxiety as the Countess desperately tries to keep her jerk husband from discovering Cherubino in the closet, and Susanna tries to figure out what the heck to do about it all. Sung gloriously here by Simon Keenlyside, Julia Kleiter, and Joélle Harvey at the Royal Opera House, this trio was one of my favorite pieces to learn and sing back in the day, and it’s still probably my favorite moment in the opera.
