THE SONGBIRD: Beverly Sills (1929 - 2007) was my first diva and the reason I became infatuated with coloratura sopranos and started collecting vocal music. Sills holds a special place in my musical life to this day so I'm happy to share this rare item that is not currently posted on YouTube, taken from a LA Philharmonic concert in 1974 with Zubin Mehta conducting.
THE MUSIC: While Mozart was in Milan for his production of "Lucio Silla" in 1773, he wrote the sacred motet "Exsultate jubilate" K.165 for the castrato Venanzio Rauzzini (1746 - 1810). Its first performance took place at the Theatine Church on January 17, while Rauzzini was singing in Mozart's opera at night. The motet is three movements and exists in several versions: Mozart made some revisions around 1780 and other manuscripts have been discovered in Salzburg. It is one of Mozart's most popular and effective works and is often performed in concert and recorded commercially. It's traditional to insert cadenzas at the end of the major movements and to add a High C at the very end. Richard Strauss wrote a cadenza for Elisabeth Schumann in 1919. Here Sills sings two elaborate, and unique cadenzas.
