Die heimliche Ehe

Staged by Gustav Rudolf Sellner, conducted by Lorin Maazel, with costumes by Filippo Sanjust and performed by the six soloists with consummate vocal elegance, Cimarosa’s “Die heimliche Ehe” (Il matrimonio segreto / The Secret Marriage) offers unalloyed pleasure, triggering a kind of ecstasy with ist combination of delicacy and opulence and ist refined humour. It brings out Cimarosa’s musical mastery – but also the visual impact of the opera. Sung in German.
