"Aprite un po' quegli occhi" is Figaro's final aria from Mozart's "Le Nozze di Figaro." Upset with Susanna's alleged betrayal, Figaro laments the fickle and deceitful nature of women, expressing his frustration in a moment of vulnerability and cynicism.
Samuel Ramey delivers a masterful performance of this aria, blending emotional depth with impeccable vocal technique to bring Figaro's feelings to life. He has incredible stage presence, so enjoy watching and listening!
This performance is during the 1982 La Scala production of "Le nozze di Figaro."
Conductor: Riccardo Muti
