Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart La clemenza di Tito
(Concert performance)
A story of conspiracy, love and death (execution by wild beasts!) and finally the magnanimous Emperor Tito forgives them all. La Clemenza di Tito was Mozart’s last opera and was premiered in Prague in 1791, just three months before the composer’s death. It is set in Rome under the Emperor Tito, and follows an ever increasing web of intrigue, assassination plots and desperate games of love and hate.
This performance will be sung in Italian with an English naration between arias and ensembles.
“I want the wretch
slain before sunset.
You know that he usurps a kingdom
given to me by the Gods”
Vitellia
