Mozart Le Nozze Di Figaro Ponnelle 18 Ecco La Marcia

[justiciaideal46]

Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau is always the best Almaviva.

Where is the song in the Marriage of Figaro opera score book?

[AmericanEvita]

@RSTAR2009 This was not an aria or song. This was the Wedding March, Figaro's Wedding to Susanna at the end of Act 3. This includes a chorus of women "Amanti Constanti" The rest are just recitatives spoken by the Count, Countess, Figaro and Susanna. But this has never been a song, which means only one person is singing.

I saw this great movie version of Figaro from the 70's on DVD in the Deutsche Grammophone label. It's the best! Beautiful production, authentic period costumes and with a true Spanish/Seville flavor and location, and the singing is magnificent by everyone - Dieskau as the Count, Freni as Susana, Te Kenawa as the Countess, Herman Prey as Figaro and a soulful Maria Ewing as Cherubino. Everyone is in character and acting/singing the hell out of their roles.. this one is .the best!!!

[ArchivistaLindhorst]

if one day i'll get married,I want This march on the ceremony :-D love it

[elias12186]

I think the 2nd mov of beethovens 3rd is more appropriate.

[himrien]

i don't agree

[gary903]

@elias12186 I get it! Ha Ha!

[domramalaja]

I agree with you, ArchivistaLindhorst. I would like to have that as wedding march too. Just hope to have a liberal vicar who will allow theatre music. :-)

[MastersoftheOpera]

But you have to make sure the majority if not all of your guests are hardcore opera lovers! I'd stick with the classic Mendelssohn Wedding March instead. Everyone, even those unfamiliar with classical music know that piece. It's the wedding march of all wedding marches

[elitap22]

I absolutely agree with you, a great march. Grande Mozart

[CriticalListener]

@ArchivistaLindhorst We did have this march for our wedding. It was perfect. Don't let anyone talk you out of what you want musically; it's your day, not theirs.
