  • Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart: IL RE PASTORE at Theatre du Chatelet from 22

    . January til February 1.


    This opera, written and premiered in 1775, the same year as La finta giardiniera, already contains inventions and formal and melodic varieties which mark the compositions of the Genius from Salzburg
    . Mozart treats the voice as areal solo instrument. In this little masterpiece from his youth he also createsa dialogue with the flute – (Se vincendo virendo felici) or with the violin in Aminta’s rondo L’amero, saro costante – (often sung in recitals)
