The lovely Soprano, Lisa Rijmer and I recorded these two contrasting arias from wonderful operas by two of the greatest composers. The first is a dramatic aria from Mozart's Idomeneo, in which the Ilia is torn between love and country. The second is from Handel's Giulio Cesare, where Cleopatra uses her charms disguised as "Lidia" to seduce Cesare.
