Mozart's mischievous examination of love gets a fresh look from German director Jan Philipp Gloger, who made his Royal Opera debut with this spirited production, first staged in 2016. His approach is inspired by Mozart and book writer Da Ponte’s alternative title for the opera, ‘The School for Lovers’, which points to its role in teaching young people the endlessly varied nature love.
This production's cast includes British baritone Thomas Allen, and it is conducted by Stefano Montanari.
