La Scala di Seta Overture

Viac o knihe

Set in a comedic one-act format, this opera features a clever plot revolving around a character who lowers a silk ladder for her lover's secret nighttime visit. First performed in 1812 in Venice, it includes a beloved overture that continues to be popular in concert halls. This newly engraved edition by Richard W. Sargeant, Jr. highlights Rossini's signature wit, making it a valuable addition for opera enthusiasts and performers alike, despite its rarity on stage today.
