Mozart's "Cosi Fan Tutte" - Part 2

This week we continue our exploration of Mozart's opera, "Cosi Fan Tutte," or "They're All Like That." We'll talk about social mores of the time,  the rapidly mounting hilarity and absurdity of the text, but more importantly perhaps, about the sublime music that Mozart writes to go along with these shenanigans. How does Mozart give us empathy for such unsympathetic characters? How does he keep us interested in the narrative? And what does the Enlightenment have to do with all of this?
