Maybe you know it as a classic of opera comedy or maybe you know it thanks to a Bugs Bunny cartoon, but either way, The Barber of Seville is a crowd-pleasing favorite. This comedy tells of a count, his love, and the clever barber whose mistakes and successes lead the characters on a merry romp. Join conductor Robert Tweten as he describes what it's like to musically manage Rossini's one and only Figaro.
