The Marriage of Figaro by Mozart, Od (2023/2023), Režie Giorgio Strehler, Royal Opera House Muscat, Muscat, Oman

Le Nozze di Figaro, is an opera by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart based on Pierre Augustin Caron de Beaumarchais play Le Mariage de Figaro, which remains a favourite in the operatic repertoire. At the premiere in Vienna it was an immense success. Its bubbling overture, its brilliantly crafted arias (which give insights into the personalities of the characters who sing them) and its lively ensemble scenes won the hearts of all who witnessed it. Worldwide acclaimed director Giorgio Strehler, Franca Squarciapino’s ravishing costumes and Ezio Frigerio’s wonderful set designs add to the amazing beauty on stage of this historical production of the Teatro alla Scala Milan conducted by Sesto Quatrini
