Opera / Mozart's Mitridate, re di Ponto
The video (below) is a modern castrato ultra rare recording, with credit to Quatrapuntal who shared it. This is a live recording from 1999 that he had all this time but never released. The piece is an aria "Va, l'error mio palesa" from Wolfgang A. Mozart's opera Mitridate, re di Ponto. It was composed by Mozart at the age of only 14 whilst touring Italy with his family.
Full details about the piece are in the video itself.
Castrato defined: A 'castrato' (Italian, plural: castrati), is a type of classical male singing voice equivalent to that of a soprano, mezzo-soprano, or contralto. The voice is produced by castration of the singer before puberty, or it occurs in one who, due to an endocrinological condition, never reaches sexual maturity.
