The Marriage of Figaro K. 492 is an opera buffa composed by Mozart in 1786. Based on the play by Pierre Beaumarchais, it is a delightful and witty tale of love, intrigue, and mistaken identities set in the eighteenth-century aristocratic society. Mozart's genius shines through the exquisite music, combining lively arias, intricate ensembles, and memorable melodies. The opera premiered in Vienna and was an immediate success, although it initially faced challenges due to its controversial themes. The Marriage of Figaro is considered one of Mozart's greatest works, showcasing his mastery of characterization, musical humor, and dramatic storytelling.

International social justice movements and the debates that ensued prompted us to start considering the contents of our website from a critical point of view. This has led us to acknowledge that most of the texts in our database are Western-centered. We have asked the authors of our content to be aware of the underlying racial and cultural bias in many scholarly sources, and to try to keep in mind multiple points of view while describing the manuscripts. We also recognize that this is yet a small, first step towards fighting inequality.

If you notice any trace of racist or unjust narratives in our communications, please help us be part of the change by letting us know.
