Le nozze di Figaro is a 1959 EMI studio recording of Mozart's opera of the same name with the Philharmonia Orchestra and Chorus under Carlo Maria Giulini.

The cast includes Elisabeth Schwarzkopf as the Countess, Anna Moffo as Susanna, Eberhard Wächter as the Count, Giuseppe Taddei as Figaro and Fiorenza Cossotto as Cherubino.

The recording, made at Kingsway Hall, London, was first released on EMI in 1961 with Walter Legge as producer.

Critics have praised the richness, beauty, timing, dramatic effect, vocal texture, clarity and detail of the recording and noted the superior cast.

[1][5] Due to its popularity, EMI has rereleased the album several times, but the transfer to two CDs that interrupted the longest uninterrupted piece of music Mozart ever wrote, the 20-minute finale of act 2, met some criticism.
