Soprano Sarah Fox Records Mozart's 'Il Re Pastore'
by Christina Mancuso - Oct 16, 2015

Leading English soprano Sarah Fox has been winning high praise for a string of recordings of late. Her last two classical CDs (a Vaughan Williams symphony CD for Sir Mark Elder and the Halle Orchestra on the Halle's own label and, more Vaughan Williams, 'Dona nobis pacem' for Andrew Litton and the Colorado Symphony Orchestra on Hyperion) were, variously, Gramophone Award-nominated, and named Gramophone Editor's Choice and BBC Music Magazine Recording of the Month. And her recent Cole Porter songs CD, for Signum, was picked by David Mellor as CD of the Week in the Mail On Sunday. Still, it isn't every day that one gets to record a leading role in an underperformed Mozart opera - so she was thrilled to be asked to sing Aminta in Classical Opera's Il Re Pastore, out this month from Signum.
