Streaming

In 2015, Wolf Trap Opera embarked on a project to offer time-limited video streams of its productions at The Barns at Wolf Trap. In partnership with Blue Land Media, Classical WETA 90.9, and Wolf Trap Recordings, a new opera is made available every six months.

Streaming Now: Così fan tutte

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.

Sung in Italian with English captions.
