Join in on Friday 5 March at 7pm GMT as we stream Mozart's The Marriage of Figaro. With a host of wonderful arias covering a spectrum of emotions, this much-loved opera is brought to life in David McVicar's production, set in a château in 1830. This recording from 2015 features Erwin Schrott as Figaro, Sophie Bevan as Susanna, Stéphane Degout as Count Almaviva, Ellie Dehn as Countess Almaviva and Kate Lindsey as Cherubino. The Orchestra of the Royal Opera House and the Royal Opera Chorus are conducted by Ivor Bolton.
The company will also stream Kenneth MacMillan's showstopping Ragtime ensemble-piece Elite Syncopations on Friday 12 March at 7pm GMT. This special recording is taken from the celebrated The Royal Ballet: Back on Stage performance which took place in October 2020 and was the first time that the Company had performed together on stage in seven months. Elite Syncopations is regarded as one of the most joyous and uplifting pieces in the repertory and features music by Scott Joplin.
