Così fan tutte
Music by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Libretto by Lorenzo Da Ponte

All women are fickle: that sums up this opera’s theme—and that’s exactly what the cynical bachelor Don Alfonso sets out to prove. He’s willing to bet big bucks that no woman can stay true to her man for more than one day.

His victims? Two gullible young soldiers who are ready to wager that their fiancées—who are sisters—are paragons of virtue. These guys are positive that their girls will pass any “fidelity test” with flying colors. But they don’t!

So what happens when the sisters end up unwittingly “swapping” fiancés because the men’s tricky deceptions work only too well? Is it reconciliation or emotional devastation? Find out as you enjoy this multi-layered Mozartian confection that dazzles with brilliant arias and ensembles.

Così fan tutte by Mozart, From (2016/2016), Directed by Michael Shell,, Conductor Arthur Fagen, Musical Arts Center, Bloomington, United States
