In Mozart’s brilliant comedy, two sets of lovers test their belief in fidelity. The men accept a wager from Don Alfonso to demonstrate that faithfulness in love is an unreliable foundation for a solid relationship. Aided by the women’s clever maid Despina, each disguised man pays court to the “wrong” fiancée, revealing the men’s jealousy. Is this a bet they really want to win? Da Ponte’s witty libretto and Mozart’s delicious melodies keep the fun moving through an unmatched series of arias, duets, and ensembles.
Erik Kroncke sings Il Commendatore.
Performed at the Palladium Theater, 253 5th Avenue N.
