Glyndebourne: La Cenerentola - 2005
Music by Gioachino Rossini.
Libretto by Jacopo Ferretti
Rossinis version of the Cinderella fairy tale
The story of Rossinis effervescent comedic opera is more familiarly known as Cinderella. In Rossinis variation, the wicked stepmother is replaced by a wicked stepfather, Don Magnifico. The Fairy Godmother is replaced by Alidoro, a philosopher and the Prince's tutor. Cinderella is identified not by her glass slipper but by her bracelet. La Cenerentola, which Rossini completed in three weeks not long after his highly-acclaimed The Barber of Seville, is considered to have some of his finest writing for solo voice and ensembles.
