Metastasio’s "La clemenza di Tito"

Love | Rule | Forgive

About the Production

GRAMMY-winning American tenor Nicholas Phan brings Metastasio’s great hero of La clemenza di Tito to life in arias by the boy wonder Mozart and three composers who shaped him: Mysliveček, Gluck, and Hasse.

In Clemenza, betrayal by the closest of friends is real — but so is forgiveness. The emperor Tito chooses magnanimity over fury, friendship over spectacle. Framed by music of Mozart’s true friends and champions, “Papa” Haydn and Marianna Martines, this program reveals genius forged in companionship and rivalry alike. With Mozart at the center, mercy emerges as the ultimate act of love.
