Glyndebourne: Le nozze di Figaro
Music by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Libretto by Lorenzo Da Ponte
A profoundly humane comedy, Le Nozze di Figaro (The Marriage of Figaro) is set in Seville, Spain, in the late 18th Century. The opera is a remarkable marriage of Mozarts music at the height of his genius and one of the best librettos ever set. In adapting a play that caused a scandal with its revolutionary take on 18th-century society, librettist Lorenzo Da Ponte focused less on the original topical references and more on the timeless issues embedded in the frothy drawing-room comedy. With Mozarts masterpiece of a score, the result was a witty yet profound tale of love, betrayal, and forgiveness.
