Il barbiere di Siviglia
Comic drama in two acts with libretto by Cesare Sterbini based on the play of the same name by Pierre-Augustin Caron de Beaumarchais – First performance: Rome, Teatro Argentina, 20 February 1816 – Musical edition: E. F. Kalmus & Co., New York
A story of playful romantic intrigues with a happy ending, centred on the revolutionary figure of the handyman barber Figaro, thanks to whom the Count of Almaviva not only wins the beautiful Rosina, but also frees her from her commitments to her jealous guardian Don Bartolo, who has his eye on the girl’s rich dowry. Daniele Menghini’s colourful production returns with Gianluca Martinenghi conducting and an excellent vocal cast led by the young talent of Grisha Martirosyan, the return of Ruzil Gatin, Raffaella Lupinacci as Rosina and the Don Bartolo of the excellent Marco Filippo Romano, considered today’s leading performer in the role.
