Così fan tutte

Concluding his Da Ponte cycle at the Wiener Staatsoper, Barrie Kosky creates “a world sensation in the opera universe” (Klassik-Begeistert).

Barrie Kosky concludes his Da Ponte cycle at the Wiener Staatsoper with Mozart’s Così fan tutte, creating “a world sensation in the opera universe” (Klassik-Begeistert). Christopher Maltman’s Don Alfonso becomes a director rehearsing a play with two young couples – Federica Lombardi and Peter Kellner (Fiordiligi and Guglielmo), Emily D’Angelo and Filipe Manu (Dorabella and Ferrando) – and, with Kate Lindsey’s Despina, sets out to prove women’s infidelity. “The individual voices are outstanding, and the ensemble homogeneity even more so” (Frankfurter Rundschau). Philippe Jordan conducts from the fortepiano, balancing “classical beauty and vibrancy” (Kleine Zeitung).
