If anyone can make the ridiculous sublime, it’s Mozart. Here is proof. The last in his celebrated trilogy of operas composed with librettist Da Ponte, Così fan tutte is an absurd story set to music of impossible beauty.
Two men disguise themselves and attempt to seduce the other’s lover in an elaborate ruse to win a bet.
In this video, the Opera Australia Orchestra performed Mozart's overture, conducted by Tahu Matheson.
Così fan tutte is at Sydney Opera House in August 2024.
