Info

Il matrimonio segreto is a co-production between De Nationale Opera, Nederlandse Reisopera and Opera Zuid, with the cooperation of NJO | National Youth Orchestra. The production focuses on young talent. Il matrimonio segreto (Cimaroso) is an 18th-century Italian comic opera. The music reflects the influence of Mozart. It is a vile and mischievous opera in a contemporary staging with a nod to the 18th century. The libretto by Giovanni Bertati is full of comic complications and confusions and is about following your heart.
