“Ascanio in Alba is a really unknown one even among Mozart’s unknown operas, but I do believe in this piece. This is a rarity which is only performed here in Europe. A young “lion” shows its nails in it, who wanted to succeed as an opera composer. And what happened? He was commissioned to compose an opera.
