The Classical Opera Company - The Marriage of Figaro
This summer the Classical Opera Company presents its first production of arguably the greatest opera ever written, The Marriage of Figaro. This promises to be a characteristically entertaining and intelligent exploration of Mozart's masterpiece, and continues the company's ground-breaking cycle of the complete Mozart operas.
Although The Marriage of Figaro is one of the most frequently performed operas in the repertoire, this is the first full-scale touring production in the UK to use period instruments. The combination of world-class young singers and a dynamic period-instrument orchestra brings thrilling vibrancy, lustre and freshness to Mozart's work, offering new colours and insights throughout this magnificent score.
It's Figaro and Susanna's wedding day, and the Count seems to be being more than generous with his gifts to Susanna. Figaro's suspicions are aroused as the follies of the day unfold…
"All modern husbands are like that… unfaithful on principle, capricious by nature, and jealous purely as a matter of pride."
- "Their generous acting and musicianship made the evening a joy from start to finish"
- THE INDEPENDENT ON SUNDAY
- "Tremendous flair and brilliance"
- THE DAILY TELEGRAPH
