January 2022

Julie Fuchs is one of the excitements of this recording...and so is Michael Spyres as Mitridate with a handsome account of the king’s opening number...Yet the hero here and throughout is the conductor Marc Minkowski with a crisp and considered account of this score. Frankly his Les Musiciens du Louvre make you forget when young Mozart is padding.
5 out of 5 stars

January 2022

Right from the powerful opening to the Overture, you know that you are in good hands. Les Musiciens du Louvre play nobly for their conductor...Elsa Dreisig is magnificent as Sifare…[Spyres's] command of the role is absolute.
