James Conlon all six performances of Rossini's delicious comedic romp. Making her LA Opera debut, magnificent mezzo-soprano Elizabeth DeShong leads a top notch cast which includes baritone Rodion Pogossov, who made his LAO debut in 2013 as Papageno in The Magic Flute, and 2011 Operalia-winner René Barbera who last dazzled Los Angeles audiences as Prince Ramiro in Cinderella (La Cenerentola).

Dashing Count Almaviva has lost his heart to the spunky Rosina, whose doddering guardian is determined to marry her himself. It’s Figaro to the rescue, as the resourceful barber conjures up wacky schemes and strategies to unite the young lovers.

A topnotch cast sails through the score’s bel canto glories, thrilling the audience as characters that are just as vivid today as when they first took the stage. Rossini’s razor-sharp musical wit glints through every scene of this delicious comedy, one of the most playful and popular in the entire operatic repertoire.
