About

Following its successful full-length opera, Artaxerxes, The Mozartists return with the first in an epic series of Mozart operas, Apollo et Hyacinthus. Named in The Guardian as one of ‘The Best Classical albums of 2012’.

Classical Opera has mounted two staged productions of Mozart’s Apollo et Hyacinthus (1998 and 2006), with both receiving wide critical acclaim; The Independent stated, “Classical Opera’s polished debut in Apollo et Hyacinthus proved a pearl beyond price. Here was a work of staggering beauty riddled with sweet noises like Caliban’s enchanted isle.”
