Three episodes from the life of Figaro, over three days. Discover all of Figaro’s facets. From barber to matchmaker, this character will charm you in three operas written by Gioachino Rossini, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Elena Langer.

In 1815, Gioachino Rossini signed a contract to write an opera based on the play Le barbier de Séville. The premiere was a failure because Paisiello and his followers did their best to cause the audience to dislike Rossini’s work. Soon to be performed abroad, the Barbiere di Siviglia became a roaring success. It has remained to this date one of the world’s most performed operas.
