gioachino rossini
Il signor Bruschino
Gioachino Rossini’s playful farce Il signor Bruschino, or rather the son by chance on a libretto by Giuseppe Maria Foppa, belongs to the group of five farces that the author wrote for the Teatro San Moisè in Venice. The brilliant and lively opera recounts the mockery devised by Florville who, to marry his beloved Sofia, pretends with her guardian to be the son of Signor Bruschino, to whom the old Gaudenzio has already promised the young woman in marriage.
