Performed by the local artists of the Jockey Club Opera Hong Kong Young Artist Development and Education Programme, the abridged opera versions of Mozart’s masterpieces – Così fan tutte x The Magic Flute, will charm the audience with their sublime melodies and will undoubtedly bring an exciting and memorable opera performance to the audience.

Love, an everlasting theme in both Eastern and Western art, has inspired infinite art creations out of artists’ perceptions and mastery. Mozart’s Così fan tutte is known not only for its daring and provocative story of fiancée swapping but also its fantastic music. The story talks about two army officers wagering with an old friend on the faithfulness of their fiancée, which opens to an absurdly funny development with the two men disguising as foreigners, faked suicides and feigned hallucinations. As the girls’ fidelity is tested, the men are shocked by an outcome they could never have expected. In true Mozart fashion, all ends happy and well, but not without a few lessons learned along the way.

Mozart’s last opera, The Magic Flute, is the most popular classic in the history of opera. A fairy tale of the forces of good versus evil, the Queen of the Night commands the handsome prince Tamino to rescue her daughter Pamina from Sarastro, a high priest. Accompanied by the lovable Papageno and the Magic Flute, Tamino embarks on a quest to save the princess, encountering many trials and tribulations along the way. Finally, they got love through the test, and also defeated the Queen of the Night after the dark and evil.

莫扎特經典歌劇精要版《女人皆如此》x《魔笛》將由「賽馬會香港歌劇院青年演唱家發展及教育計劃」青年演唱家擔綱演出，伴隨美妙的旋律動人心弦，將為觀眾帶來一個既刺激又難忘的歌劇之夜！

愛情是古今中外藝術家的熱門題材，藉藝術家觸覺及造詣可創造千變萬化的作品。莫扎特《女人皆如此》不僅以大膽及具爭議的題材「交換未婚妻」而聞名於世，其音樂更是廣為人知。故事講述兩位男主角堅信自己未婚妻的忠誠，遂與老朋友打賭，旋即展開引誘對方愛侶的瘋狂計劃，為求成功不惜喬裝外國人、假自殺、裝瘋扮傻，無所不用其極。她們的忠貞終受不了考驗，男士們對出人意表的結局雖感錯愕，但最後也原諒對方。莫扎特以一貫風格，編寫了一部部嬉笑怒罵的喜歌劇，卻又能觀眾寶貴的一課。

莫扎特的最後一部歌劇《魔笛》，也是歌劇史上最膾炙人口的傳世經典。故事是一個善惡勢力對決的童話故事，講述王子塔米諾受夜后請託，帶著一支魔笛及「捕鳥人」巴巴基諾去解救被薩拉斯托所擄走的夜后女兒柏美娜。他們遇上種種難關，最終通過考驗得到了愛情，也戰勝了代表黑暗和邪惡的夜后。
