Daria Lytovchenko plays Bastienne in the opera Bastien und Bastienne by Mozart. See and listen the Final scene from the opera.
The show is being staged at the Kyiv Music Theater (Kyiv State Municipal Academic Opera and Ballet Theatre for Children and Youth).
Bastien und Bastienne was one of Mozart’s earliest operas, written in 1768 when he was only twelve years old. Although he was very young, Mozart already had excellent vocal writing skills and a knack for parody and whimsy which would reach full flower in his later works. Bastien und Bastienne is possibly the easiest to perform of Mozart’s juvenile works.
