Le Nozze di Figaro, Mozarts timeless opera buffa, is one of the greatest of all operatic masterpieces. It is based on Beaumarchais comedy Le Marriage de Figaro and tells the tale of the servant Figaro, who is about to marry the maid Susanna. Count Almaviva, keeping an eye on Susanna himself, tries to prevent this marriage with the help of Bortolo, the doctor, but is continually thwarted. This exquisite production by Peter Hall, Director of the National Theatre, features a host of renowned opera singers lead by Kiri Te Kanawa as the Countess, the role that made her an international superstar. Knut Skrams charming and likeable take on the character of Figaro works very well with Cotrubas gentle Susanna. Also noteworthy is the outstanding Frederica von Stade, elebrated for her performance in the trouser role of Cherubino. From the Glyndebourne Festical Opera 1973. Picture Format: 4:3 Subtitles: I, D, F, GB, SP Sound Format: PCM Stereo
