Opera Lovers Movies Return on September 19 with “The Elixir of Love”
>
> Please join The Villages Music Society’s Opera Lovers on Thursday, September 19 at 1:30 p.m. in Montgomery Center when we present Gaetano Donizetti’s “L’Elisir d’Amore.”
>
> This charming comedy, filled with glorious melodies (e.g., the beautiful aria “Una furtiva lagrima”), tells the story of the young, impressionable Nemorino who is in love with Adina. Unfortunately, Adina has eyes for the over-confident Belcore. Along comes the fraudulent Dr. Dulcamara who sells Nemorino an “Elixir of Love,” which is nothing more than cheap wine! But Nemorino is tricked into thinking that the potion actually works and sets out to win Adina’s attention in hilarious fashion.
>
> This Metropolitan Opera production stars Luciano Pavarotti and Kathleen Battle, along with Juan Pons, and is conducted by James Levine. The opera is sung in Italian with English subtitles and runs 2 hours 10 minutes.
