The comic opera »The Barber of Seville« by Gioachino Rossini, which premiered in 1816, carries the subtitle »The Useless Precaution«, and that’s precisely what it’s all about. Avaricious old Dottore Bartolo tries to keep his ward Rosina at home in order to marry her himself to gain the rich dowry. But his plotting is in vain: In various disguises, and with the help of the barber Figaro, the young and much more desirable Count Almaviva melts the young woman’s heart. »The Barber of Seville« is Rossini’s most popular opera due to its virtuoso arias and fast-paced ensembles, false identities and chicanery, all of which are beautifully realised in Grischa Asagaroff’s funny production.

Die 1816 uraufgeführte komische Oper »Der Barbier von Sevilla« von Gioachino Rossini trägt den Untertitel »Die nutzlose Vorsicht« – und genau darum geht es: Voller Eifersucht versucht der alte Dottore Bartolo, sein Mündel Rosina im Hause zu behüten, um es selbst des reichen Erbes wegen zu heiraten. Aber vergeblich: Der junge und ungleich charmantere Graf Almaviva verschafft sich dank Maskerade und der Hilfe des Barbiers Figaro Zugang zum Herzen der jungen Frau. »Der Barbier von Sevilla« ist mit seinen virtuosen Arien und den rasanten Ensembles die beliebteste Oper Rossinis, und Grischa Asagaroffs Inszenierung spitzt das Spiel mit falschen Identitäten und Intrigen wunderbar komödiantisch zu.
