  • I saw this production on the national public broadcaster about ten years ago, the first opera I watched from start to end, because I found it entertaining.

    I have seen several other productions of Figaro since, and still regard this as the best by far.

    This production awoke my interest in opera.

  • Best version of Aprite, Presto, Aprite ever. I absolutely love this production. If it where ever on DVD I would buy it in a heartbeat.

see all

  • I just can't get enough of Croft as the Count and with Fleming this entire scene is PERFECTION. I saw them together in Cosi Fan Tutte and it was stunning, absolutely stunning. He's brilliant in Mozart, always!!

  • totally different from the version i saw but it's really great, too!

  • @nni9310 This was pretty much my experience too. I was, however, lucky enough to catch a production in Berlin a few years later which was also magnificent (from what I could tell from the back of the theatre). Seeing it live made me see what I'd earlier been told about Figaro, that physically the part is best played by a smaller, slighter man. He is, after all, supposed to be sort of crafty little weasel rather than the rugby player/bear that Bryn is. But Bryn's wonderful here anyway.

  • the acting in this rendition is absolutely outstanding, and the costume design is superb.

    singing aint bad either ;)

  • @UtochkinaKaterina Dwayne Croft. :o)

  • Who plays the Count?it doesn't say anywhere

  • Simply Perfection in all aspects, the music, the acting, the casting, the conductor...

  • Who is singing the Count's role?

  • the cast is perfect !! just perfect !
