“The battle of the sexes ended in an upset the other night in Le Nozze di Figaro. No, nobody rewrote the libretto of Mozart’s 1786 opera, about a countess and her maid joining forces to teach a randy count a lesson. But the casting of the Met’s revival was so lopsided that the golden-voiced men easily won sympathy over a gaggle of screechy sopranos.” [New York Post]
