This is a beautiful section from Mozart's Idomeneo. Unfortunately, this opera is not performed as often as some of his other works. This is a shame, as there are plenty of great moments to be had in Idomeneo. I don't think I would choose to direct the opera with these exact costumes or staging choices...but it is a lovely recording, nonetheless.
Cathy, thanks for your comments on my blog. 'Virgo' and 'Libra' are for sale. At the moment 'Libra' is in my studio and 'Virgo' is buried behind a pile of boxes, I'm in the middle of moving house, but she will be accessible in about a week. They are collage and acrylic on canvas, 18"X24", $875 each inc tax and shipping, framed. If you need more info please don't hesitate to email me on mousebounce@sbcglobal.net. If you email, I can also send you my phone number.
