Dramma tragicomico in five acts
Music by Antonio Salieri (1788) Libretto by DA PONTE after BEAUMARCHAIS (sung in Italian)
(first UK broadcast)
Originally written for Paris, as Tarare, the opera's unorthodox music and form break the mould of contemporary opera and look forward to 19thcentury Romantic opera.
