What happens when a cast of extraordinary artists comes together for Artaserse?
As mezzo Emily Fons shares: “We’ve brought together singers from across the U.S. and Europe… with so many different colors, timbres, and musical perspectives. When everyone is working at that level, it elevates the entire performance.”
From its uniquely high-voiced cast to the dynamic exchange between artists, hear the result in Haymarket Opera Company’s new recording of Vinci's Artaserse with Cedille Records.
Purchase album or stream online. Available for purchase online through Cedille Records and for streaming on major music platforms including Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, Pandora, and YouTube Music.

Coming soon: INVICTUS, available May 8
Award-winning, Chicago-based composer Stacy Garrop's piano concerto INVICTUS has been praised as “accessible, exciting, shrewdly crafted music” (Chicago Classical Review). Garrop’s concerto draws inspiration from William Ernest Henley’s (1849–1903) poem of the same name and its spirit of perseverance. Composed for multiple Grammy-nominated, Chicago-based performer Marta Aznavoorian, “a pianist of exceptionally finished technique and purity of musical impulse” (Boston Globe), Invictus highlights Aznavoorian’s “uncompromising intensity” (Chicago Tribune) in a commanding performance with the Chicago Philharmonic under the direction of Artistic Director Scott Speck.

Emily Fons brings striking dramatic intensity to the role of Mandane in Haymarket Opera Company’s new recording of Artaserse, released in collaboration with Chicago’s GRAMMY® Award-winning label Cedille Records.
“Emily Fons as Mandane was every bit as gripping, too, sharpening her luxurious mezzo to deadly points in the first act and lacing it with sobs in the third.”
—Hannah Edgar, Chicago Tribune
Featuring the acclaimed cast and orchestra of Haymarket’s 2025 production, this recording captures Leonardo Vinci and Pietro Metastasio’s 1730 masterpiece with vivid immediacy and care for historical performance.
Available for purchase online through Cedille Records and for streaming on major music platforms including Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, Pandora, and YouTube Music.
