About The Mozartists:
“It is hard to imagine hearing another performance as convivial and life-affirming as this.” GRAMOPHONE
The Mozartists (formerly Classical Opera - registered charity number 1063387) was founded by conductor and Artistic Director Ian Page to explore and bring to life the music of Mozart and his contemporaries. The company is a leading exponent in its field and has received widespread acclaim for its high-quality live performances, recordings, broadcasts and education projects, as well as its work in developing exceptional young singers. Performing with its own period-instrument orchestra, it appears regularly at leading UK venues such as Wigmore Hall, Southbank Centre and Cadogan Hall, as well as touring in the UK and abroad. In 2015 it launched MOZART 250, an ambitious 27-year project exploring Mozart’s life, works and influences in chronological sequence. Each year the company also delivers inspiring education projects to school children. The 2022/23 Season marks the company’s 25th anniversary, making this an exceptionally exciting time to join the company as it embarks upon the next stage of its development.
