Così fan tutte is Mozart’s most polarizing opera. Often considered the perfect ensemble opera, Così features ravishing melodies and glorious arias, duets, and sextets. The emotionally complex and quick-fire comedy offers an examination of sexual attitudes and the battle between love, reason, and human fallibility. Enjoy a special pre-show Q&A with Delores Ziegler, one of the most celebrated mezzo-sopranos and Dorabellas of her time. Ziegler will speak at all four productions, one hour before the performance starts.
