In the organizer's words:

Heavenly temptations
Mozart's score sparkles with musical wit and emotional depth. Splendid arias such as "Come scoglio", "Smanie implacabili", "Un'aura amorosa" or "Donne mie, la fate a tanti" unfold all the magic of this opera - surrounded by sparkling duets and ensembles that are still considered masterpieces of musical characterization today.

Fidelity, temptation and the eternal question of love
Are people really made for lifelong fidelity, or does love thrive on its unpredictability? Mozart and his librettist Lorenzo Da Ponte pose these questions with wit, poignancy and an astonishingly modern sensibility. Two years before Mozart's death in 1791, Così fan tutte was the last work by the ingenious author duo - a musical jewel that held up a mirror to the Viennese audience of its time. Many felt caught out, some were outraged by the supposed immorality, but everyone agreed on one thing: the music was overwhelming.

Playing with fire
Incited by the manipulative philosopher Don Alfonso, the officers Guglielmo and Ferrando embark on a dangerous experiment. Supposedly going to war, they return in disguise and now try to seduce each other's brides. At first, Fiordiligi and Dorabella bravely stick to their principles - but with charm, perseverance and the cunning Despina at their side, they too begin to waver.

What begins as a harmless wager ends for the young men with a bitter realization: those who put the hearts of others to the test must expect to emerge wounded themselves. Perhaps a little self-deception is part of every happy relationship - and sometimes it's wiser not to want to know everything. After all, Così fan tutte - "That's the way everyone does it" - is as true as it is tongue-in-cheek.
