Opera buffa in vier Akten - ??bersetzung von Brieger/Layer-Premi?red at the Vienna Hoftheater on 1 May 1786 Wolfang Amadeus Mozart???s and Lorenzo Da Ponte???s Le nozze di Figaro may be safely regarded as one of the greatest operatic successes of all times. Yet its success was not entirely due to Mozart???s music: on the contrary because of the extraordinary demands it placed on the orchestra (especially the woodwinds) the music even posed an obstacle to the work???s spread outside the German-speaking countries. At least equally responsible for the opera???s success was the librettist Lorenzo Da Ponte who managed to transform a topical and socio-critical stage play into an opera libretto as effective as it isamusing.Many of the sources for Mozart???s first opera from the Lorenzo Da Ponte trilogy only became available to scholars again after the ???New Mozart Edition??? volume was published. These include the autograph scores of acts 3 and 4 now held at the Biblioteka Jagiello ka in Krak?w significant portions of the original sets of parts and acts 2 to 4 of the conductor???s copy from the first performance of 1786.These original sources now available again offer compelling solutions to several previously unresolved questions.Edition based on the Urtext of the ???New Mozart Edition??? reflecting the latest musicological researchWith findings from original sources now available againDetailed foreword (Ger/Eng)Full score (BA4565-01) Vocal score (BA4565-92) study score format 22.5 x 16.5cm and Facsimile (BVK1882) available for saleV43 Performance material (BA4565-72) available to hire

Considered to be the greatest of all opera seria and one of the few Mozart works to portray heroic emotions seriously. Lavish with arias it is also one of the most fully and elaborately scored of all of Mozart's operas. Reprinted from the full-score edition published by Breitkopf

Italian/English-Mozart's 'The Marriage Of Figaro' was based on Beaumarchais' politically radical play - the second of the trilogy which begun with 'The Barber Of Seville' - later of course adapted into an opera by Rossini. As in 'Il Barbiere diSiviglia' 'The Marriage of Figaro' depicted the aristocracy as buffoons controlled and outwitted by their cunning servants. This time Figaro and Susanna are due to wed but must first outwit the Count who is determined toexercise a master's ancient right to deflower the bride of his servant. This is the Schirmer edition of the libretto in the original Italian with an English translation by Ruth and Thomas Martin.
