Content

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791): "Le nozze di Figaro" (The Marriage of Figaro), conducted by Karl Böhm, directed by Jean-Pierre Ponnelle. With Hermann Prey (Figaro), Mirella Freni (Susanna), Kiri Te Kanawa (Countess Almaviva), Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau (Count Almaviva), Maria Ewing (Cherubino). Few conductors have mastered the fluidity of melodic control, the rhythmic drive and the dramatic characterization of Mozart's operas to the extent of Karl Böhm. Jean-Pierre Ponnelle's direction perfectly translates the polished stylishness and the beauty and warmth of Böhm's musical direction into scenes and character portrayals of luminous naturalness.
