Today's Video of the Day is a performance of Mercadante's 'Son del tuo volto immagine' from Il proscritto by Iván Ayón-Rivas (tenor) and Anna Tilbrook (piano). The performance is from the 2024 Gramophone Classical Music Awards and celebrates Opera Rara as winners of Label of the Year. Every year we honour a label which has particularly inspired us with its dedication to music on record.

What better way to celebrate Gramophone's Label of the Year Opera Rara than with a performance from one of their young stars, with an aria from one of their recent recordings. Opera Rara is far more than a label – an organisation with a mission to revive and champion lesser-known works from the operatic repertoire; to perform them with the finest of today’s musicians; and then to share them with the wider world through superb studio recordings.
