I've watched every "Crudel Perche Finora" on YT, and, in my opinion, this one is by far the best performance, even better than Battle's 1985 version at the MET. ejrouge: I don't see Susanna's happiness in her deception. We see her displeasure at 0:53-0:59 and 2:49-2:52, and at 2:41 we feel a palpable sense of mundane disinterest before she carelessly makes her first mistake in responding to the count. Just my opinion, but I thought it was worth mentioning. :)
Pappano is a good conductor... to some extent. I also know his Tosca (the film) and at some points I don't really like it. I am not a professional when it comes to Le Nozze, but I like it very much. ^^
AMAZING performance, love the direction and staging. The interpretation and acting is original , refreshing and works. Thoroughly enjoyed this production, best cosi on youtube. elias im fucking eternally grateful for you uploading all this mozart. Thanks
I loved their voices, however, I think Susanna`s acting is out of context. She seems to be really glad when she's really suffering a battle inside when she lies to the Count. Well, that's my oppinion. Thanks for uploading this.
I love miah person... she's an amazing singer... and this one is one of the best Figaro's wedding I've seen lately (I have the DVD, and I enjoy every time I watch it)
sooooooo hot!!!!!she's marvellous, how she's seducing him though she hates him...this is the best version of this scene i've seen so far...I love miah persson, she's the best mozart singer!!!
a) LOVE that little ornament at the end. b) LOVE this staging- like she hates him, but she can't help being somewhat attracted to him... Who's the director and conductor?
It tells you at the top, but Antonio Papano and David MacVicar, respectively. The latter being, as my aunt puts it, "the most SHOCKING director in opera" :/
I have seen alot of versions figaros wedding. But this one tops it all, both in acting and singing! And let`s face it this version of crudel is abit more steamy than the rest? Agree?;)
Whoa. The character Susanna isn't a whore, nor should anyone be calling a professional that. It shows poor taste and immaturity.
Fabulous job to both of them! The Count is very randy and believable, beautiful tone, gorgeous voice. And Susanna! What a lovely voice, and great acting! Very animated.
Woah! That's hella cool that Gerald Finlay is playing the count! I have Le Nozze di Figaro on DVD with Finlay as Figaro. He's still amazing!!

Wow, he's so much better as a Count! I guess his voice just matured a bunch since the Glyndebourne production with him as Figaro.

I agree, a bit much. She should not be all over him like that. The singing is great, though.
