A favorite Mozart performance from Remko Jas
The combination of a young opera director who is a little bonkers and a seasoned Mozart soprano (this was Lenneke Ruiten‘s 13th Mozart role on stage) resulted in one of the best performances of Nozze di Figaro I’ve ever seen.

Ruiten has everything for the role – this aria was the highlight of the evening, but she also made a great impression in all the fast and sharp ensembles. A good Nozze Countess needs a lot of energy, too. Ruiten had that, and she was very moving in the Countess’s sad, introspective moments, as well.
