I saw a wonderful performance on Le Nozze di Figaro last nite on TV. It =
was a broadcast from a Met opera production. But I have a question. In =
the fourth act instead of performing Susanna's "Garden" Aria they =
substituted another aria with basset horns and, I believe, clarinets. =
It was quite a performance, Cecilia Bartoli played Susanna.
Does anybody know about this substituted aria, did Mozart write it to =
replace the Garden Aria ?
Thanks, John Gates
