TUTTI Ah, tutti contenti saremo così. Questo giorno di tormenti, di capricci, e di follia, in contenti e in allegria solo amor può terminar. Sposi, amici, al ballo, al gioco, alle mine date foco! Ed al suon di lieta marcia corriam tutti a festeggiar!. FINE DELL'OPERA.
Such a beautiful statement: brings a tear to my eye! If left with only one choice for top Mozart piece this little scene out of a whole opera would win. Such tender music.
If only we could hear from composers now who could create such beauty. No more of this trying to achieve tonality or that garbage. You know when it is good, you know when it is great, you know when it is sublime. I hear nothing today that comes close. It is as if the composers of today want to inflict pain on us. Thank God that we have the masters and great performances of their work to rely on.
IMHO, this is the finest production - in all aspects, right down to the final rolling of the r on "festeggiar" - available on YouTube. Possibly the best I've ever seen.
Isn't the ending of this opera the most beautiful thing? There is nothing more poignant and moving to me than forgiveness, which in my opinion is the greatest of all virtue.
It's amazing that this production, which at the time didn't really have that many flashy actors (though they became more famous later on), is the best recording I've ever seen
Me too! I saw this opera first when I was 14, in a small repertory opera company's production. I cried all the way home, and was a dedicated lover of Mozart, and opera, ever afterward. Thanks for posting this, Access! I have this DVD, but it's great to see it here for all to enjoy!
Thanks for the tip about Reri Grist. I watched the YouTube video of her duet with the countess and I agree she is a delightful singer. I wasn't too taken with Claire Watson as the Countess, however..oh well.
The Mozart operas - especially Figaro, Entfuhrung, and Don Giovanni - are AMAZING! This is one of my favorite productions, although I also highly recommend the 1965 Salzburg Festspiel production - Karl Bohm conducting with Reri Grist. She's my favorite Susanna and she's also an incredible Blonde.
Mozart is one of the few people for whom superlatives can just barely encompass his expression as an artist. Fortunately we are getting some great performances, such as this one, to help us experience the musical glow.

フィガロは、オケで伴奏した事がありますが、やっぱりフィナーレは何度聴いても感動します。

Kudos to Gardiner for not rushing the strings from 4.10-4.45, as so many other conductors do, often spoiling a beautiful moment. Great job!

This was a music I had never heard. Filled with longing. Such unfilfulliable longing. It was as if I was hearing the very voice of god.

The first time I saw the forgiveness scene in the movie amadeus , tears run out of my eyes. It is so beautiful.

I think though the contessa perdona part is his most beautiful composition out of his great moments.
