Maria Zadori

I just wanted to say that if Mr. Mozart lived and died only so that Maria Zadori could sing Laudaute Dominum from ‘Versparae soleness de confessore’ with the Budapest Philharmonic Orchestra, then his life would still have been completely worthwhile. Is worthwhile the right word? Anyway, thank goodness he did live, did write it, and thank goodness she lived, and did sing it. Because it’s beautiful. If beauty had a definition, this would be it. You gotta listen to it. Everyone should – classical guru or no (and I’m a no, so there’s proof.) Mind you nobody can sing it like Maria. In fact, I'm not sure this piece of Mozart’s was actually complete until she came along.

Hail Maria Zadori.
