Pre-Concert Talk: The Marriage of Figaro, Concert Highlights

The Roswell Symphony Celebrates the 50th anniversary of conductor John Farrer with a performance of highlights fromThe Marriage of Figaro, by W. A. Mozart. Join Oliver Prezant, long-time lecturer for the Santa Fe Opera, for a fun and friendly preview that will provide the plot, connect the dots, and help you read between the lines of this great, great comedy. Taste the delicious Italian text and learn how Mozart’s music gives character to the clever servant, Figaro, his fiancé Susanna, the philandering Count who’s pursuing her, the lonely abandoned Countess, the conniving music teacher, and the adorably inept adolescent page, Cherubino. It’s everything you need to make your Evening at the Opera a richer, more enjoyable experience!
