- Summary:
- Rossini's rarely heard comedy receives a brilliant performance in Bartlett Sher's Met premiere production, with a trio of today's greatest bel canto stars in the leading roles: Juan Diego Flórez is Count Ory, a handsome rogue who finds women--all women--irresistible. Diana Damrau sings the virtuous Countess Adèle, and Joyce DiDonato is Isolier, the count's page, who is also in love with the countess. Jokes, misunderstandings, and gender-bending disguises--including knights dressed as nuns-- abound in this hilarious tale of deception and seduction. Maurizio Benini conducts.
