Understanding Opera: The Barber of Seville
Join us for a lively discussion of Il Barbiere di Siviglia by Gioacchino Rossini. Cristiana Pegoraro will share the history, highlights, libretto, and cultural and social significance of the opera. After this engaging preview, illustrated with video and audio samples, students will get the most out of viewing the opera performances on their own. Please note: This opera is scheduled to be performed by the Metropolitan Opera in Winter 2021.
