Artist Series Concert Thursday, 1 March 2007 McNair Science Building Auditorium, 8:00 pm Cosi fan tutte K.588 by W. A. Mozart performed by Capital City Opera Company Synopsis: Ferrando and Guglielmo think that their fiancées, Fiordiligi and Dorabella, will always remain loyal. Don Alfonso, an old bachelor, bets the two young men that their fiancées are not more faithful than other women are. As part of the bet, the two men pretend to be sent off to battle but instead dress up as two Albanian suitors. After a series of hilarious attempts, the two Albanians, with the aid of the ladies’ chambermaid, Despina, manage to gain the love of Fiordiligi and Dorabella. The Capitol City Opera Company will perform in a free chamber production of Mozart's Cosi fan tutte ("women are like that") on the FMU campus in McNair Science Building Auditorium. A small cast, accompanied by piano, will tell the story of Ferrando and Guglielmo and their fiancees, Fiordiligi and Dorabella. Don Alfonso, an old bachelor, makes a bet with the two young men about the fidelity of their fiancees. Hilarity and romance ensue when the two young men attempt an elaborate deception to prove to Don Alfonso that when it comes to love, not all women are unfaithful. Firmly believing that opera is for everyone, Capital City Opera Company will perform this two-act production in English. It is not a remote art form that only the initiated appreciate – it reflects human conflicts and passions. It has inspired a level of devotion in some people best compared to that of a die-hard sports fan. Just as you do not need to know every statistic to enjoy watching a football game, you do not need to be a music or opera expert to enjoy our performances. The Capitol City Opera Company formed in 1983 to provide classically trained singers in the Atlanta area the opportunity to learn and perform opera. Says the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, "For more than 20 years, on a tiny budget, Capitol City has achieved the impossible: small-scale, but well-constructed productions of chamber operas." |
