With the exact lightness and purity for which Mozart arias are famed, Perth born and Australian based soprano Sara Macliver brings her distinctive clarity, balance and delicacy to some of the world’s most famous music.

This new recording committed to disc is Sara Macliver’s thirteenth for ABC Classics and is yet another ‘glistening gem’ in her vocal crown.

Accompanied by the world-class Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra, under the baton of German-born conductor Sebastian Lang–Lessing, Macliver’s purely magical voice shines once again.
