Description:

The new production of "The Marriage of Figaro" by Klaus Guth is arguably the most significant artistic achievement of the entire Mozart Year 2006, the 250th anniversary of his birth, which included numerous events. The dry direction, which emphasized the duality of human nature and the anguish caused by the duality of opposites, and the moving performance by Arnoncourt, who painstakingly created the music with a splendid cast of singers including Netrebko, Schaeffer, and D'Arcangelo, breathed new life into this masterpiece.
