James Levine’s love for this seldom-heard score infuses every measure of Verdi’s music.

The Ghosts of Versailles Trailer (1992)
10 January 1992
What happened to Figaro and his friends after the events told in Rossini’s and Mozart’s operas? One possible sequel is told in John Corigliano’s “grand opera buffa” The Ghosts of Versailles—an uproariously funny and deeply moving work inspired by Beaumarchais’s third Figaro play, La Mère Coupable, and commissioned by the Met to celebrate its 100th anniversary.
