It’s Figaro’s wedding, and you’re invited to join the Almaviva household for an uproarious day of revelation and scandal.
Mozart’s score is instantly recognisable, from Figaro's ironic farewell to Cherubino in "Non più andrai" (You shall go no more), to Cherubino’s lovelorn aria to the Countess, "Voi che sapete" (You who know what love is).
