About
“Meine Prager verstehen mich” (My Praguers understand me). This is perhaps Mozart’s most well-known expression of his deep fondness for the Czech lands and their people. In their honor, he composed his magnificent opera about the Roman Emperor Titus for the coronation of Leopold II. The opera debuted on 6 September 1791 at the Estates Theatre in Prague. To this day, it continues to be performed worldwide, celebrated for its brilliant music that often outshines the somewhat formulaic plot set in Rome in 79 AD.
The production is recommended for ages 12 and older
