The Italian in Algiers

Comic opera by Gioachino Rossini. Text by Angelo Anelli
In Italian language with German surtitles
"L'italiana in Algeri" was Rossini's first great success and, after "Il barbiere di Siviglia", is one of the composer's most popular comic operas. The humorous and ironic scenes are designed with virtuoso bravura, and the characters are lovingly and vividly characterized.
