The Marriage of Figaro
(Reklamlänk)
Many opera lovers would name The Marriage of Figaro as their favourite opera. It appeals to the most intellectual listener, but also to music lovers seeking great melodies and ensembles (while it remains accessible through its fascinating plot and memorable characters) and to those seeking only entertainment. One of three operas by Mozart to libretti by Lorenzo da Ponte it represents one of the pinnacles not just of operatic but of human achievement.
