These vibrant performances feature popular repertoire brought together in pairings that have not appeared on disc before: the composer’s darkest Symphony, No. 40 in G minor; a dramatic recitative and virtuoso aria from Lucio Silla; Ballet Music from Idomeneo, a festive and rarely-heard suite from the last great work in the opera seria tradition; and four lively and entertaining Contradances.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTaking its name from the classical god of music and the sun, Apollo’s Fire is dedicated to the performance of 17th- and 18th-century music on period instruments. Founder and Music Director Jeannette Sorrell and her ensemble of dynamic and creative early-music artists from North America and Europe have been praised internationally for stylistic freshness and buoyancy, animated spontaneity, technical excellence, and creative programming. An award-winning harpsichordist and conductor, Sorrell studied with Gustav Leonhardt in Amsterdam and Leonard Bernstein at Tanglewood.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0067\/4660\/3571\/files\/official_TRACK_LISTING_WITH_WORLD_0dc0c6c8-3485-4867-8aa8-a09c520223c1_480x480.png?v=1668436329\" alt=\"\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0067\/4660\/3571\/files\/official_TRACK_LISTING_WITH_WORLD_0dc0c6c8-3485-4867-8aa8-a09c520223c1_480x480.png?v=1668436329\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWolfgang Amadeus MOZART (1756-1791)\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSymphony No. 40 in g minor, K. 550\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e1.
