The Truth about Love

27 January 2027, 7.30pm – Cadogan Hall

Soloists Sarah Dufresne, Chiara Skerath, and Alessandro Fisher

We return to Cadogan Hall to celebrate Mozart’s birthday with this enchanting exploration of the multi-faceted theme of love in Mozart’s operas. The programme incorporates a selection of memorable arias and ensembles from The Marriage of Figaro, The Magic Flute, Don Giovanni, Cosi fan tutte, Idomeneo and La clemenza di Tito – as well as less familiar highlights from La finta semplice and La finta giardiniera – and each musical item is preceded by a related poem (the selection includes poems by Shakespeare, Robert Frost, W. H. Auden, E. E. Cummings and John Fuller), providing fresh context, insight and narrative flow as well as humour and pathos.

The Mozartists have established an enviable track-record in discovering and developing world-class young singers, and the long list of acclaimed artists who worked extensively with the company at the outset of their careers includes Sophie Bevan, Allan Clayton and Louise Alder. The current crop of young singers is among the most exiting yet, and the five artists showcased in this concert are all destined for highly successful international careers.

Mozart “Voi che sapete che cosa è amor” from Le nozze di Figaro

“Sposa cara, sposa bella” from La finta semplice
“Ah perdona al primo affetto” from La clemenza di Tito
“No, voi non siete… Di tante sue procelle” from Il re pastore
“Deh vieni alla finestra” from Don Giovanni
“Non so più cosa son, cosa faccio” from Le nozze di Figaro 
“Giunse alfin il momento… Deh vieni, non tardar” from Le nozze di Figaro
“Tutto è disposto . . . Aprite un po’ quegl’occhi” from Le nozze di Figaro
“In qual fiero contrasto . . . Tradito, schernito” from Così fan tutte
“È amore un ladroncello” from Così fan tutte
“Ei parte . . . Per pietà, ben mio, perdona” from Così fan tutte
“Principessa, a’ tuoi sguardi . . . S’io non moro a questi accenti” from Idomeneo
