Abstract	Rossini is one of the great operatic composers, an innovator in the whole concept of what was appropriate for serious as well as comic opera. Moses is a score which he revised for Paris, ten years after it had been composed for Naples; the result shows the evolution of his dramatic taste over a crucial decade from the neoclassical sublime to spectacular Romantic grand opera. The Barber has been a consistent favourite with the public and performers since it opened, and Marco Spada analyses how its stylish comedy has been misunderstood. Other essays throw light on the working conditions of the 'opera industry' in Rossini's Italy, on Balzac's delightful novel concerning Moses and on the exceptional challenge of performing this type of music well. Includes thematic guides and essays on Rossini and his music by Philip Gossett, John Rosselli, Marco Spada, Ubaldo Gardini, Pierluigi Petrobelli, and Richard Bernas.
