La Gazzetta

Rossini's quirky Opera satirizes the influence of the newspaper on people's lives. The colorful production follows the pretentious Don Pomponio Storione in his worldwide travels to procure a husband for his daughter, placing ads in the newspapers. The wildly hilarious cast of inadequate suitors brings Rossini's melodies – performed by the Opera Royal de Wallonie, Liege – to life in a spectacular adaptation of La Gazzetta.
