Rossini’s masterpiece of the comic opera stage, The Barber of Seville (Il barbiere di Siviglia, 1816), has an unparalleled status in the history of opera. Due to composer’s undisputable genius for the music stage and sparkling comedy, the opera remains as one of the most celebrated and often performed operas of all time. Determined to win the heart of the beautiful, strong-willed Rosina with charm and wit – rather than nobility and wealth – Count Almaviva enlists the help of the wily Figaro to steal her away from the lecherous doctor Bartolo, who is accidentally also hoping to become her husband. A new Maribor production of Rossini’s best known music comedy will present a new turn of alluring stage “trickery” and ingenuity under direction by Pier Francesco Maestrini.
