Soprano Sabine Devieilhe dazzles in this aria of Ismene from the third act of Mozart's opera Mitridate, rè di Ponto, with Les Musiciens du Louvre and conductor Marc Minkowski. Discover the complete opera: This electrifying recording stars baritenor Michael Spyres in the title role, alongside a star cast that also includes Elsa Dreisig as Sifare, Julie Fuchs as Aspasia, Paul-Antoine Bénos-Djian as Farnace, Adriana Bignagni Lesca as Arbate, and Cyrille Dubois as Marzio. Mozart was just 14 years old when he composed Mitridate, rè di Ponto for performance in Milan. An opera seria set in ancient times, it boasts a sequence of spectacular arias for its cast of strongly contrasting characters. At the center of the action is Mitridate himself – the historical Mithridatus, King of Pontus, a ruler of Persian-Greek ancestry who was a formidable opponent of the Roman empire.
