Basically, the staff in Rossini's comic operas is derived from the commedia dell'arte and therefore mostly consists of somewhat dopey older gentlemen who fall in love with capricious and sometimes malicious, but very pretty and beautifully singing ladies, who in turn mainly fall in love with not interested in young, usually penniless gentlemen who are married to them. It is a common prejudice that all of this lacks depth of thought, which Heinrich Heine classified as completely irrelevant: "But I enjoy your golden tones, your melodic lights, your sparkling butterfly dreams". These are brought to life by a great and playful
ensemble.
