In this high-flying Act One aria, Count Ory (renowned tenor Lawrence Brownlee) — a crafty nobleman disguised as a wise hermit — offers love advice to the ladies of the town.

Lawrence Brownlee performs "Que les destins prospères" from Rossini's LE COMTE ORY

The master of operatic comedy who created The Barber of Seville strikes again with this side-splitting comedy replete with onstage antics that match its high-energy music. High jinks ensue when Countess Adèle sequesters herself in her castle while her valiant brother is away on a crusade. In his absence, the amorous Count Ory stops at nothing (including disguising himself as a nun!) to gain entry to the castle and woo the virtuous Countess. Le Comte Ory is one of opera's most frothy delights, with music that bubbles over like the most effervescent champagne. In this pricelessly witty production, bel canto tenor par excellence Lawrence Brownlee stars in the virtuosic title role — one of his specialties internationally — opposite the Countess of Kathryn Lewek, one of her generation's most scintillating coloratura sopranos. You'll smile from the overture to the happy ending.

Count Ory by Rossini, Sun 13 Nov 2022, From (2022/2022), Directed by Bartlett Sher,, Conductor Enrique Mazzola, Lyric Opera House, Chicago, United States
