Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart: Nozze Di Figaro (Teatro Real Blu-Ray Disc)  

From the opening notes of the overture to the final curtain, Emilio Sagi’s classic, triumphant production fully brings to life all the elegant wit and theatricality of Mozart’s comic masterpiece.

Leading baritone Ludovic Tézier shines as the lustful Count Almaviva who attempts to obtain the favours of Figaro’s bride-to-be, Susanna (Isabel Rey), while Luca Pisaroni gives a feisty performance as Figaro. Conductor Jesús López Cobos masterfully captures the enchanting score. A witty yet profound tale of love, betrayal, and forgiveness.

‘An incontestable success… full of Sevillian atmosphere. (Tézier) is in exceptional vocal shape and the role suits him perfectly…’ Music Web International
