Cosi Fan Tutte/YMMV


  • Crowning Music of Awesome: The quartet Alla bella Despinetta starts the section and then the sisters join in.
  • Crowning Moment of Awesome: Despina, the snarky, world-wise maid who laughs at the dramatic notions of love her mistresses have, is always ready for a laugh and takes everything in stride. Una donna a quindici anni is probably the best example; the music even swells up into a crescendo when she tells them to do as she says to reign like a queen with "you could" and "I'd like".
  • Crowning Moment of Funny

Dorabella: Our fiances have left for war!
Despina: So much the better for them: You'll see them return crowned with laurel.
Fiordiligi: But they might be killed!
Despina: Why then, so much the better for you!
