This thesis is the study of the musical analysis and the conducting interpretation of Verdi’s Falstaff, Act III, Scene 2. The musical analysis includes the analysis of harmony, orchestration, articulation, reprise of specific motifs, and the final fugue. The conducting interpretation was inspired by the author’s participation in the inaugural Italian Opera Academy, established in 2015 by Maestro Riccardo Muti. The author elaborates his experiences in rehearsals and public performance, and insightful aspects learned from assisting Maestro Muti in working on the production of Falstaff.
