UM School of Music: Maryland Opera Studio - La Finta Giardiniera
("Gardener Girl")
by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
libretto by Giuseppe Petrosellini and Marco Coltellini
Justina Lee, conductor
Pat Diamond, director
An opera buffa in three acts that tells the elaborate tale of a woman, in disguise, searching for the lover who mistakenly believes he has killed her. Performed in Italian with English supertitles. Fully staged, with minimal production and only piano accompaniment, this opera focuses on the singers and the characters they create. Minimal scenery, clothes, and props put the emphasis on the young singers in their first complete roles in the Opera Studio.
