Gioachino Rossini on kirjutanud 39 ooperit, millest tuntuimad on koomilised „Sevilla habemeajaja“ ning „Tuhkatriinu“. Vähemtuntud on tema tõsisemad lavateosed. Ometi oli Rossini ooper „La donna del lago“ (1819, „Järveneitsi“) suunanäitajaks ka teistele heliloojatele – see oli esimene itaalia ooper, mille aluseks oli šoti romantilise koolkonna poeedi Sir Walter Scotti teos. Hiljem on Scotti eksootilist Šoti mägismaad kujutavad teosed aluseks veel mitmekümnele itaalia ooperile, millest tuntuim on Gaetano Donizetti „Lucia di Lammermoor“.
    16. sajandi Šoti mägismaal rullub lahti lugu armastusest, truudusest ja maalilisest loodusest, mida Rossini kujutab kirgaste meloodiate ja värvika orkestratsiooniga. „La donna del lago“ on tõeline stratosfääri kõrgustesse ulatuv vokaalse virtuoossuse tulevärk, mis võiks naudingut pakkuda kõigile ooperisõpradele. Armastatuimateks muusikanumbriteks on kujunenud Rodrigo aaria „Eccomi a voi … se a miei võti amor sorride“, Malcolmi cabaletta ja kindlasti peategelase Elena särav aaria „Tanti affetti“ ooperi lõpust.

Sisu
Šotimaa mägilased on sõjas kuningas James V vastu. Mägilaste juhi Douglase tütar Elena on pälvinud kuninga armastuse, kui too jahimees Ubertoks maskeerituna neiu kodu ümbruses jahti peab. Elena on aga armunud noorde mägilasse Malcolmi. Neiu isa soovib, et tütar abielluks mägilaste kõrgeima väejuhi Rodrigoga, kellel lasuvad lootused sõda kuninga vastu võita. Lõpuks võidab aga armastus: kuningas tapab Rodrigo, andestab Douglasele ja Malcolmile ning õnnistab Elena abielu noormehega.

Gioachino Rossini has written 39 operas, the most famous of which are the comedic "The Barber of Seville" and "Cinderella". Less well known are his more serious stage works. Yet Rossini's opera La donna del lago (1819, The Maiden of the Lake) was also a beacon for other composers – it was the first Italian opera based on the work of the Scottish Romantic poet Sir Walter Scott. Later, Scott's works depicting the exotic Scottish Highlands are the basis for several dozen Italian operas, the most famous of which is Lucia di Lammermoor by Gaetano Donizetti.

In the Scottish Highlands of the 16th century, the story of love, fidelity and picturesque nature unfolds, which Rossini depicts with bright melodies and colorful orchestration. "La donna del lago" is a veritable firework of stratospheric vocal virtuosity that should delight all opera lovers. Rodrigo's aria "Eccomi a voi...", Malcolm's cabaletta and certainly the bright aria of the protagonist Elena "Tanti affetti" from the end of the opera have become the most beloved musical numbers.

The Highlanders of Scotland are at war against King James V. Elena, the daughter of Douglas, the leader of the Highlanders, has won the king's love when he hunts around the maiden's home, disguised as Uberto the hunter. However, Elena is in love with the northern mountaineer Malcolm. The girl's father wants his daughter to marry Rodrigo, the highest commander of the highlanders, who hopes to win the war against the king. In the end, however, love wins: the king kills Rodrigo, forgives Douglas and Malcolm, and blesses Elena's marriage to the young man.
