| 4 | New York, 1825. Italian poet Lorenzo Da Ponte has set up a cake shop and bookstore there with his English wife. After a failed attempt to interest a customer in his autobiography, his wife asks him why he's written so little about the part of his life everyone wants to hear about -- his collaboration with Music/WolfgangAmadeusMozart on their three works of opera, Theatre/TheMarriageOfFigaro, Theatre/DonGiovanni, and Theatre/CosiFanTutte. Da Ponte tells the story of his brief but monumental collaboration and friendship with the great genius. |
