Metropolitan Opera: The (New) Women of 'Figaro'

MOZART may make you smarter -- so, at least, runs a popular belief -- but he doesn't always make you an opera star. You can find a lot of things in Mozart's operas: psychological insight, beautiful (and sometimes difficult) music, complex ensembles, humor and pathos. But they are a world apart, stylistically and temperamentally, from the big blood-and-guts melodramas that opera legends are typically made by. If you're thinking of splashy operatic debuts in major houses these days, you generally think of things like Tosca (Puccini), Aida (Verdi) or Isolde (Wagner), not Mozart's Susanna.
