Le Nozze di Figaro (2017)

Music by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart 
Libretto by Lorenzo Da Ponte 

Performed in Italian with English supertitles

Agassiz Theatre • Cambridge, Massachusetts

Keeping in mind the fact that the Harvard Opera Company exists as a completely undergraduate organization, from pit to singers to crew, the production constituted a monumental undertaking and a solid success.
