From the Teatro Real de Madrid
LE NOZZE DI FIGARO | by W.A. Mozart
Opera buffa in four acts by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Libretto: Lorenzo da Ponte
Based on “La folle journée, ou Le mariage de Figaro” by Pierre-Augustin Beaumarchais
From the opening notes of the overture to the final curtain, Emilio Sagi’s classic, triumphant production brings to life all the elegant wit and theatricality of Mozart’s comic masterpiece “Le nozze di Figaro”. Leading baritone Ludovic Tézier shines as the lustful Count Almaviva who attempts to obtain the favors of Figaro’s bride-to-be, Susanna (Isabel Rey), while Luca Pisaroni gives a feisty performance as Figaro. Conductor Jesús López Cobos masterfully captures the enchanting score. A witty yet profound tale of love, betrayal, and forgiveness.
