"Mozart wrote an opera buffa La Finta Giardiniera when he was 18 years old and it received its first performance in 1775 at the Salvatortheater in Munich. This Italian comic opera starts off with three classic buffo roles -- an amorous old man, a wily maid and a handsome young gardener. The Cavaliere offers a "serious" role à la opera seria. And a female gardener who is "finta", in other words a fake, is a "mezzo carattere"--The title given in opera buffa to roles that are allowed to alternate between the comic and the serious, between sentimentality and drama. With its clever changes between major and minor keys, this plot is anything but clichéd. The intimate setting of Sweden's Drottningholm Court Theatre, dating back to 1766, provides a perfect stage for these operas and featuring truly authentic experience."
"From the Drottningholm Court theatre in 1988. Features the Chorus and the Orchestra of the Drottningholm Court Theatre. Conducted by Arnold Ostman."
