This is a good video of "Figaro", but there are a couple of better ones available. The Bohm and the Pappano are better still due to the female members of the casts. The reason for buying this one is the "Figaro", Bryn Terfel. No one can top him today in that role. John Eliot Gardiner also stands out. Many of us have voiced their opinion that If the Metropolitan Opera would release it's 1998 version, that would be the one to get.

It was first performed on 6 March 1853 at the La Fenice opera house in Venice.

It was not until the 1880s that the composer and librettist's original wishes were carried out and "realistic" productions were staged.[3]
