About the opera
W.A. Mozart: "Cosi fan tutte" – Dramma giocoso in 2 acts
Thus Do They All, or The School for Lovers
The idea for this cheerful game of intrigue and disguise came from Emperor Joseph II. Mozart's librettist Lorenzo da Ponte wrote a light-hearted farce about gallantry and infidelity in casual relationships. The "Dramma giocoso" premiered on 26 January 1790 at the Vienna National-Hoftheater, today's Burgtheater. The story is set in Naples around 1780.
The officers Ferrando and Guglielmo sing the praises of their fiancées' unshakeable fidelity. The old philosopher Don Alfonso voices his doubts. He proposes a wager to the impetuous lovers: for one day they are to follow his suggestions, and so prove his suspicion that women are prone to infidelity. 100 zecchini are at stake for the winning side.
The sisters Fiordiligi and Dorabella are hopelessly in love with their bridegrooms and can hardly wait for their wedding day. Don Alfonso has to disappoint them: the officers must go off to war. The farewell is heartbreakingly sad.
The chambermaid Despina takes a rather more relaxed view of fidelity. All the more willingly she allows Don Alfonso to bribe her and invites the disguised lovers into the house to pay their respects to the sisters. The wager seems already half won: for the time being the ladies remain steadfast. The gentlemen want to die of lovesickness.
Despina entices the sisters to try their luck, at least playfully, with Don Alfonso's wealthy friends – and with partners swapped: Dorabella with the dark-haired Guglielmo, Fiordiligi with the blond Ferrando. During the rose serenade Dorabella is already weakening, while Ferrando meets with a cold reception from Fiordiligi. Don Alfonso wants to resolve the entanglements with a "double wedding". Despina slips into the role of a notary who has the marriage contracts signed. No sooner is this done than the soldiers unravel the confusion and the secret of the disguises, which Don Alfonso had kept from Despina. Through the emotional ups and downs of fidelity and infidelity, both couples have learned their lesson. Don Alfonso can pocket his zecchini. For the happy ending, the original couples are happily reunited.
