Act 2 -3 Le nozze di Figaro (Met'99) Susanna's 1st aria

Act 2 -3: Susanna's 2nd aria 'Un moto di gioia' (alternate to the usual 'Venite, inginocchiatevi'. Bartoli sang 2 performances with 2 substitute arias for Susanna and the rest with the original arias).

Mozart's opera, The Marriage of Figaro. Met 1999.

Countess and Susanna have fun dressing Cherubino up as a girl. They are surprised by the sudden return of the Count. Cherubino hides in the closet as the Countess stalls.

Although I prefer Un moto di gioia musically, Venite inginochiatevi makes much more sense here.

Nothing speaks more eloquently about Mozart's genious than the fact that arias like "un moto di gioia" or "al desio di chi t'adora" are....alternative

Yes, Croft IS such a sexy Count - I love his boots! And his gorgeous smooth voice.

Bartoli's breath is soooo loud and distracting.. Don't opera singers do special breathing exercises?
