=~ , Mozart The action takes place at the country house of Count Almaviva. With very accommodating notions of morality himself, the Count is very jealous of the conduct of the Countess, whom he suspects of being rather too fond of an over-grown page. Cherubino. The Count is carrying on 4 flirtation with Susannah, the Countess’s maid, and the drolleries of the opera hang to a large extent on the incidents thus afforded. Susannah is about to be married to Figaro, the Count’s valet, but the Count offers her a dowry if she will meet him that evening. She declines, and Figaro presently appears, requesting the Count | to honour his marriage by giving away the bride. The Count agrees, but delays the eeremony in order to;renew his su with Susannah Meanwhile, Susannah has joined with the Countess and Figaro in a plot to disecomfit the Count. An anonymous letter, written by Figaro, tells the Count of certain assignations which have been made for the evening in. the garden. Various diverting incidents arise out of this. Further hilarity is created when Bartolo and Marcellina, an aged couple, enter. Bartolo has been rejected by Susannah, and old

Marcellina has failed to captivate Figaro. But Figaro has promised to repay her an old debt within a certain time; the payment not being made, she has come to claim her bridegroom. The Count, delighted at this turn of affairs, promises that she will get her rights. But it turns out that. Figaro is the long-lost son of Bartolo and Marcellina. Then comes the plot to discomfit the Count. The Countess disguises herself as Susannah, and at the place of assignation, the Count ardently makes love to his own wife, under the impression that it is Susannah. He discovers his mistake, and promises amendment, and he and the Countess mutually forgive each other their ‘flirtations. Figaro. weds Susannah, and "AIPs well that ends well.’’
