The Romanian conductor Dan Ettinger at Salzburg Festival [ From category News ] [ Article date: 2015-08-09 ] [ From city Salzburg ] [ Country Austria ]   The Salzburg Festival presents one of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart`s masterpieces: the opera Le Nozze di Figaro, in a new production staged by Sven-Eric Bechtolf and conducted by the Romanian conductor Dan Ettinger. Actor and director Sven-Eric Bechtolf, who has been head of drama at the Salzburg Festival since 2012, stages one of Mozart`s best-known operas, Le Nozze di Figaro. He offers a brave adaptation of the original piece. The Wiener Philharmoniker plays under the baton of the Israeli conductor Dan Ettinger, and on stage, the title-roles are very exciting: Luca Pisaroni (a Mozart specialist), Anett Fritsch, Martina Janková, Adam Plachetka and Ann Murray are all gathered on stage to give life to this incredible story. The opera is based on Beaumarchais`s play La Folle Journée, ou Le Mariage de Figaro, which dates back to 1778. This opera buffa italiana is the first of three collaborations between Mozart and Lorenzo da Ponte, the two others being Don Giovanni and Così fan tutte.
