Da Ponte as Impresario
View through CrossRef
The last-minute decision to reprieve the opera buffa left Da Ponte needing to recruit singers as a matter of urgency. In doing so, he made use of Ferrarese del Bene’s recent experience of performing in Florence. The new season got off to a poor start, as the National Theater was facing increasingly stiff competition from the commercial stage. A new run of Le nozze di Figaro was scheduled, although by the summer of 1789 Joseph II was too ill to attend. The capture of Belgrade transformed the rather dark public mood in Vienna, and Così fan tutte was staged until the death of Joseph II led to the closure of the theaters.
