ideas by following a similar story line‚ particularly in the way Guglielmo and Ferrando’s acts of deception in ‘Cosi Fan Tutte’ are somewhat connected to Nick and Lucy’s betrayal of Lewis in ‘Cosi’. It is a clear example of life imitating art as the drama in the opera matches Lewis’ challenges with fidelity in his ‘real life’ relationship. ‘Cosi Fan Tutte’ roughly translates to ‘women are like that’‚ and it is this notion that women are unfaithful that Mozart presents in this opera.
