Summary
"Opera is usually full of drama, tragedy, and death. In fact the writer George Bernard Shaw once said that he knew when it was the end of an opera because no one was left alive on stage. But there are also many comic operas, operas that are full of comic characters and situations. According to the great composer Giuseppe Verdi, the greatest comic opera ever written is the subject of today's Opera Easy program," says host Natalie Choquette. "Mes dames et messieurs, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Gioachino Rossini's masterpiece, Il Barbiere di Siviglia!"
