Così fan tutte - Salzburger Festspiele 2020(it)
As Christof Loy put it: Così fan tutte invites us to embrace the complexity of life and face the future with heads held high.

In this way the production leads the protagonists and the audience to experience the ‘serene calm’ that can perhaps indeed cure our own ‘distempers’.
