Le nozze di Figaro (The Marriage of Figaro) is an opera in four acts by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, with libretto by Lorenzo da Ponte. It was composed between 1785 and 1786 and premiered on 1 May 1786 in the Burgtheater in Vienna.
Budapest is proud of possessing one of the most beautiful opera houses in the world. The opening performance was held in the neo-Renaissance building, the jewel of the avenue, in 1884 after nine years of construction. The staircase and the auditorium of the palace, designed by one of the best architects of those days Miklós Ybl, are decorated with frescos of eminent Hungarian painters. The first director was Ferenc Erkel, Gustav Mahler held this post for several years. Puccini directed the premiere of two of his operas here.
