Presented in collaboration with the new Advanced Artist Diploma in Opera programme at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, this is a prime chance to experience the future of opera first-hand. A group of hand-picked, international singers in the final stages of their training take on Mozart and Da Ponte’s sizzling social satire. Alongside The Orchestra of Scottish Opera, and conducted by celebrated period specialist John Butt, they bring fresh eyes and fresh voices to this finely honed story and score.

Two high society men engaged to two high society women should spell a straightforward happily ever after. But the men cannot resist a bet laid by their cynical friend, setting in motion one hectic day of disguises, hijinks, and mischief-making. As the couples’ games of deception unfold upstairs, the servants downstairs find opportunities to puppeteer the rich and mighty, and this playful, privileged world soon reveals far headier truths of the heart.

Così fan tutte is a journey of discovery set to the most exquisite soundtrack. Rebecca Meltzer (Opera Highlights Spring 2025) directs this new production with designs by Kat Heath, creating a colourful, stylised, and stylish world where not all is as it seems...
