The Barber of Seville by Rossini, lør. 29 apr. 2023, Fra (2023/2023), Instrueret af Marius Adam,, Dirigent Ettore Prandi, Allee Theater, Hamburg, Germany

Without a doubt, The Barber of Seville is Gioachino Rossini's best-known composition and one of the most-performed operas of all time. In just 26 days, between December 1815 and January 1816, Gioachino Rossini wrote his opera. Rossini's music has an unbelievable tempo, here a catchy tune hunts the other! As one of the most productive composers of the early 19th century, he knows how to create an almost dizzying cheerfulness with his fast tempi and rousing melodies. Rossini is a master of comedy: like a skilful marionette player, he leads the characters and right in the middle of it all, of course, is probably the most famous schemer, revolutionary and hairdresser in the opera world: Figaro, the barber of Seville!
