Mozart Le Nozze di Figaro Act 4 Finale Part 2

[@MozartsBloodline]

The ending of this mountain of an opera is beyond belief. It could not have been composed any more perfect...It truly leaves you floating like the first kiss of a true love. You knew what you were doing huh Mozart? If you get WIFI in heaven, thank you so much for your hard work and beautiful music.

[@BoniOdinga-m5g]

This man must have tugged God's heart...sad he never found stardom while still alive...only posthumously

[@davidnikon8501]

Beautifully said.

[@desrl9390]

Heaven has Wi-Fi..?!

[@ryanpmcguire]

@@BoniOdinga-m5ghe was quite respected in his time actually. Good news!

[@airpanache]

Do not be sad. Mozart'd won his well deserved reputation as a great genius and master composer in his own life time not necessarily after his death. Haydn told his dad and probably everybody that Mozart was the greatest composer known to him. Everyone had worked with Mozart knew he was a freaking great genius. We only wish he could have earned much more (like any great sopranos back in 18th century) for all the hardworking he'd done and all the great music he'd left for eternity. But he'd been quite well off for a not too short period of time at least @@BoniOdinga-m5g

[@scharnhorstkaisarbeethoven]

Saliary was the only one in that opera hall who appreciated this opera to its fullest

[@confdefisica6387]

Una música de auténtico perdón llenaba el teatro confiriendo a todos una perfecta absolución

[@jeffreyhunter7635]

I cry every time I hear this song with Salieri in my head from Amadeus lol

[@AlxzAlec]

This is why Classical music is better than anything. Modern music isn't popular after 10-20 years (Music from 10 years ago is barely listened to anymore) But yet we listen to music from the 1700s. Plus, classical music has meaning, modern music is often about who can say the most crimefilled sentences

Matthew Paluch "and then...do you know what happened -- a MIRACLE!"

[@notrowleyjefferson1951]

I saw...a woman. Disguised in a maids clothes. Here her husband speak the first, tender words he has offered her in years. Simply because he thinks, she is someone else. I heard the music of true forgiveness filling the theatre, conferring upon all who sat there......perfect absolution. God, was singing through this little man. To all the world. Unstoppable, making my defeat more bitter with every....passing....bar.

[@fidulario]

@@nicholasjoost5111 Hahaha!

[@ssarmazi]

Go on, mock me, laugh!

[@mike8903]

I think though the contessa perdona part is his most beautiful composition out of his great moments.

[@corner559]

This is one of the best ensemble casts I've seen in a long time. Amazing performance.

[@aimee4096]

+Corn Fed Perfect performance!

[@petecornell2605]

Any idea who the lovely lady singing as the Countess is?

[@cyberspeeds]

Every note conveys perfectly the complex situation, emotions and even comedic element at the right moment. Listening all these put together with such purity and simplicity is surreal.

[@petecornell2605]

good to know I’m not alone in loving this aria of absolution...Mozart is the MAN...

[@notrowleyjefferson1951]

I’ve watched this more times than I can count, and every time, 3:41 makes me cry.

[@sirhoverhaft]

Heh heh more than you can count. Good one

[@TruthSeekingElf]

Me too xx

[@simondurrant1]

Kudos to Gardiner for not rushing the strings from 4.10-4.45, as so many other conductors do, often spoiling a beautiful moment. Great job!

[@crazyfull331]

Nothing more beautiful than that... Simply wonderful !

[@beethovenlovedmozart]

You look no further than this piece to know why Mozart was the most talented music composer that ever lived. He died early and couldn't really take it to next level, but the dude was amazing. Everything he did was just an "experiment" for Opera. Opera was his passion. Thank you Mozart for sharing your passion with us.

[@ctfamily40]

+beethovenlovedmozart "Take it to the next level"....what are you talking about?

[@beethovenlovedmozart]

The next level that Beethoven did as far as instrumentation and complexity. I still think Mozart was more talented though..

[@Ludwig1625]

If the Jupiter symphony was an experiment for opera... That man was god

[@IngoZimmermann]

This was a music I had never heard. Filled with longing. Such unfilfulliable longing. It was as if I was hearing the very voice of god.

[@alosumo87]

I killed Mozart!

[@nicolahacking2623]

I love Mozart.

[@BoniOdinga-m5g]

Absolutely...my sentiments exactly in another forum. Mozart was so MELANCHOLIC it hurts... haunts..that depth...Hope he found whatever it was he was longing for...maybe everlasting Life!! I don't understand most of the Italian but the mood of his music/mostly operas is so HAUNTING

[@bikelawbloke]

Nailed it. 👊🏼

[@samf.s.7731]

I know, he won the Academy Award that year. You can watch him on Moon Knight where he voices Khonshu right now in 2022. And I have to wait till January for my local Opera House to perform this one. Can't wait!

[@lynncai587]

Music theory professor showed this in class today. Loved it completely!

[@cyberspeeds]

The music of bewilderment when the countess appears to reveal the plot was so perfect.

[@JLeeGraham]

Me too! I saw this opera first when I was 14, in a small repertory opera company's production. I cried all the way home, and was a dedicated lover of Mozart, and opera, ever afterward. Thanks for posting this, Access! I have this DVD, but it's great to see it here for all to enjoy!

[@kestalphillips1813]

The best Le Nozze di Figaro cast I've heard! Bravi!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The acting is superb!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@juanantoniozuleta6575]

Mozart: greatest musical genius ever.

[@CharlesFischerB-Town]

I only wish there was an HD version of this performance!

[@mylittleelectron6606]

Mozart's brilliance is glimpsed within that subtle descending violin at 4:11...

[@Trazom488]

You get it!

[@jeffhampson869]

i have listened to al genres of music from lonnie donagon to charlie feathers beatles and all the rest but the music between 3:14 and 5 :30 is the most ridicously sublime music that i have ever heard and i have been a music freak for going on 60 years ..beautiful absolutely beatiful.

[@danielcliment8251]

jeff hampson I know right? You can listen to it 100 times and it never stops to amaze...

[@petecornell2605]

Good for you!

[@peterrealangel]

Very beautiful, heart touching, the best. I can’t stop listening, repeatedly. 🥇🎖🏅🙏🏽💞❣️

[@magzdilluh]

3:39 for me was the start of the most perfect part of this, the sweetest, kindest most emotional part of this opera

[@ElisaVII]

Que hermosa interpretación !!! Todas las voces bien colocadas y con buen empaste.

[@philiplewis7252]

Undoubtedly my favourite production of this wonderful opera. BRAVISSIMO!

[@CharlesFischerB-Town]

+Matthew Forte At the risk of speaking for another person I believe he meant that had Mozart lived another few decades he would have composed more music at the highest level, but perhaps with some stylistic development into later classical/early romantic. Whether romantic music is at a "higher level" or just an historical evolution is certainly worth discussing, but speculation about Mozart's development is ultimately a futile game. Let us enjoy his body of work to the fullest!

[@petecornell2605]

he’s the baddest of them all

[@k.b7905]

Absolutly Great Performance -Thanks for showing ! Greets from Vienna .

[@donfabian69]

A Weaner

[@vojtizslav]

These Vieners definitelly recognize a good music when they hear it

[@k.b7905]

@@vojtizslav That's true , but the Viennese weren't particularly great friends of Mozart. The people in Prague, as well in Italy alsome in Paris and Munich, adored and loved Mozart significantly more.This has been proven historically. All I have to do is think of Mozart's breathless funeral at the Vienna St.Marxer graveyard

[@AGMundy]

Figaro for moving is a masterpiece, there is just so much to praise and enjoy. I particularly think Act 2 is breath taking - the finale is unparalleled in its perfection.

[@davidnikon8501]

Mozart I love you.

[@michaelcollins4931]

Such beautiful ensemble singing.

[@Foudedanse]

The most perfect scene in the most perfect opera. Heart melting!

[@melody42ify]

[@godzooke]

[@zegermans750]

It's amazing that this production, which at the time didn't really have that many flashy actors (though they became more famous later on), is the best recording I've ever seen

[@samnewton62]

The music of Mozart is just so moving.

[@TruthSeekingElf]

OUTSTANDING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Every time I hear”Contessa perdono” I get the chills.

[@MozartsBloodline]

Thank you very much, it really is the music which inspires!

[@Gregorius24]

Without that moment of absolution, the final Trio from Strauß’ Der Rosenkavalier would not have been possible.

[@IngoZimmermann]

at 3:11 This was a music I had never heard. Filled with longing. Such unfilfulliable longing. It was as if I was hearing the very voice of god.

TUTTI Ah, tutti contenti saremo così. Questo giorno di tormenti, di capricci, e di follia, in contenti e in allegria solo amor può terminar. Sposi, amici, al ballo, al gioco, alle mine date foco! Ed al suon di lieta marcia corriam tutti a festeggiar!. FINE DELL'OPERA.

[@briangiles3028]

Does anybody know who the performers are and where this is from?

[@gustavogrande6537]

can pls somebody tell me, why it means 'contessa perdono' and not 'contessa perdona'? its imperative.

[@andehuang5479]

Because here perdono is a noun and not a verb, it sounds like “forgiveness” not “forgive”

Jakeb, just try searching for "Contessa perdono"

[@danielcliment8251]

Riccardo Muti directed this opera and is just mind blowing.... check it out!

[@stewartmair3995]

I don't want to sound too ignorant, but what is the countess forgiving her husband for. Lovely music by the way.

[@CharlesFischerB-Town]

Synopsis : Part 5 of the finale. The Count has discovered Figaro flirting with a woman he thinks is the Countess (really Susanna dressed as the Countess) and calls everyone around in a fury to witness her shaming. Everyone begs pardon for the offenders, but this only infuriates the Count further; until his real wife emerges and reveals the trickery of the past three acts, which finally shames him into begging her forgiveness. The opera ends with the general sentiment that "everyone now will be happy", then all run off to celebrate.
