“Una voce poco fa” or “Largo al factotum” is on the lips of every person who has just seen The Barber of Seville. In spite of its premiere being a failure, master of opera buffa Gioacchino Rossini has created an immortal work that does not cease to entertain and amaze audiences on all continents. The story is fast-paced and consistent, abounding in light intrigues and errors which lead the protagonists to a happy finale.
