My parents took me to that Opera when I was around 2 years old ( I know, crazy people). I allegedly watched the whole opera mystified and without crying. So maybe I'm not totally impartial but this is my favorite opera of all time

Thank you for sharing! The music is excellent, and although the story has many moving parts, Mozart brings it to life! 💛✨
