Torvaldo e Dorliska
One of Rossini's lesser-known operas, composed in 1815 - between 11 Turco in Italia and The Barber of Seville.
Described as a dramma semiserio, it falls into the category of rescue opera, which had been popular since the French Revolution. The evil Duke of Ordow is holding Dorliska captive in his castle, determined that she will yield to him. Torvaldo - her real love - arrives to rescue her but is also captured. Only luck or clemency can save them....
Sung in Italian.
