In order to maintain his well-fed belly despite the yawning emptiness in his purse, the mischievous knight Falstaff writes identical love letters to two wealthy ladies. But they catch wind of the hoax.
"Wer zuletzt lacht, lacht am besten" - with these probably most beautiful last words on stage, the 80-year-old Giuseppe Verdi retired in 1893 and at the end of his opera career composed a musical comedy based on Shakespeare's "The Merry Wives of Windsor" that was as unconventional as it was enchanting.

English

Um trotz gähnender Leere im Geldbeutel seinen wohlgenährten Bauch zu erhalten, schreibt der schlitzohrige Ritter Falstaff gleichlautende Liebesbriefe
an zwei wohlhabende Damen. Doch die kriegen Wind von dem Schwindel. „Wer zuletzt lacht, lacht am besten“ – mit diesen wohl schönsten allerletzten Bühnenworten verabschiedete sich der 80-jährige Giuseppe Verdi 1893 in den Ruhestand und komponierte am Ende seiner Opernlaufbahn nach Shakespeares „Die lustigen Weiber von Windsor“ noch eine ebenso unkonventionelle wie hinreißende Musikkomödie.
