Three Modes of Perception in Mozart

The Philosophical, Pastoral, and Comic in <I>Cosí fan tutte</I>
Edmund J. Goehring, University of Notre Dame, Indiana
December 2004
Available
Hardback
9780521838818
    Description

    Cosi fan tutte is widely regarded as Mozart's most enigmatic opera with Lorenzo Da Ponte's most erudite text. Edmund Goehring presents a new perspective on the relationships between text and tone in the opera, the tension between comedy and philosophy as well as its representation in stage works, and the pastoral mode. Goehring's argument is sustained by the detailed analysis of primary sources (many of which are little known), and is richly illustrated with musical examples.
