Considered the greatest musical success of Pablo Luna's career, this operetta was released at the end of 1923 in El Teatro de la Zarzuela. Many consider it the best of his compositions, bolstered by an inspired and amusing libretto. After its premiere, it went on to be produced in Cuba, Mexico and continued its life cycle on stage until the 1950s.

A passionate count enlists a local barber and jack-of-all-trades to help him woo and wed a quick-witted woman. But it will take all their cunning - as well as some disguises and bribes - to ensure love wins the day. Full of memorable melodies and larger-than-life characters, Rossini’s comic masterpiece is sheer entertainment. Starring Operalia winner Levy Sekgapane as Count Almaviva, this performance from the National Opera of Chile is part of OperaVision’s events celebrating the inaugural World Opera Day on 25 October 2019.
