A classic story of love under the microscope is given a contemporary perspective in the performance of Mozart’s “school for lovers”. Così fan tutte is a compassionate examination of young love, full of wit and wonderful music, which ensure its lasting popularity. Così fan tutte was Mozart’s final collaboration with the Italian librettist Lorenzo da Ponte and Jonathan Miller’s production, created for The Royal Opera, brings out the timelessness of this exploration of the human condition.
