Così fan tutte

Who loves whom in Così fan tutte Mozarts and Da Pontes cruelly comic reflection on desire fidelity and betrayal Or have the confusions to which the main characters subject one another ensured that in spite of the heartfelt love duets and superficially fleetfooted comedy nothing will work any longer and that a sense of emotional erosion has replaced true feelings Così fan tutte is a timeless work full of questions that affect us all The Academy Awardwinning director Michael Haneke once said that he was merely being precise and did not want to distort reality In only his second opera production after Don Giovanni in 2006 he presents what ARTE described as a disillusioned vision of love in an icecold realistic interpretation
