"LE COMTE ORY" - Rossini's vocally dazzling comedy soars with bel canto sensation Juan Diego Flórez in the title role of this Met premiere production. He vies with mezzo-soprano Joyce DiDonato, in the trouser role of Isolier, for the love of the lonely Countess Adèle, sung by soprano Diana Damrau. Bartlett Sher, director of the Met's popular productions of Il Barbiere di Siviglia and Les Contes d'Hoffmann, describes the world of "Le Comte Ory" as, "a place where love is dangerous. People get hurt. That can be very funny and very painful. Rossini captures both—with the most beautiful love music he ever wrote."

  • @10023jc theres a bunch of Cs, and one high D

  • @LordMgls No, they are C's in my score.

  • Fantastico Florez! Fantastico MET!

  • @ilmaestro18 i've seen the sheet of la fille du régiment, the so-called high cs are ds as well, aren't they?

  • @tomclaudetom Rockwell Blake was very good in his day. Not as charismatic as Florez but still excellent. To say that he is "nothing" is ignorant and rude. Blake had a very good career and inspired many an audience.

  • que chido performance!!

  • @LordMgls: it's actually a D, not a C.
