Le nozze di Figaro Mozart.  Dr. Aaron Ziegel lecture part 1

Widely considered to be a perfect comic opera, Le nozze di Figaro is full of back-to-back hits, from the bubbly overture and Act I’s “Non piú andrai”, to Act III captivating duet, “Canzonetta sull’aria” (featured in this memorable scene from The Shawshank Redemption). 

The opera was Mozart’s first collaboration with librettist Lorenzo Da Ponte (the two teamed up again for Così fan tutte and Don Giovanni), and is the second installment of the Figaro trilogy).

Mozart’s masterpiece almost didn’t make it to the stage. The play upon which it’s based, Pierre Beaumarchais’s La folle journée, ou le Mariage de Figaro (The Mad Day or The Marriage of Figaro — the second of the trilogy based on the character of Figaro), was banned in most of Europe for its “revolutionary”, anti-aristocrat overtones. Da Ponte removed the much of the controversial material, and Emperor Joseph II allowed the opera to premiere at Vienna’s Burgtheater in 1786.
