On August 17, 2010, the Jacobs School of Music lost a dear colleague and supporter, David Albright. This evening’s performance is dedicated to David’s memory. David Edward Albright graduated from Indiana University with a bachelor’s degree in journalism in 1958 and a master’s degree in journalism in 1959. He was editor of the Indiana Daily Student during his journalism studies at IU. He then received a second master’s degree and his Ph.D. in international relations from Columbia University. David served in the Army at the start of the Vietnam War, working in the intelligence service. In 1982, David and his wife, Ruth, moved to Montgomery, Ala., where he was a professor of national security at the Air War College, the Air Force’s school for colonels and lieutenant colonels. In 1994, he and Ruth returned to their “roots” in Bloomington, a move that brought a great deal of joy and fulfillment into their lives. David worked as a senior research associate for the Indiana University Center for the Study of Global Change. He frequently taught courses on international security in the twenty- first century and was very active in bringing in notable outside authorities to enrich students’ lives at IU. David recently stepped down as president of the Theatre Circle, an organization that supports the IU Department of Theatre and Drama.

Place: Seville, Spain Time: 1820, on the eve of Mardi Gras Background to the Plot

Figaro, a jack-of-all-trades and an aspiring author working in Madrid wormed his way into the royal court and was befriended by the Almaviva family. As a reward for his service, he was awarded a post in the royal government to serve as an apprentice apothecary. Promptly sent to work on a stud farm in Andalusia, he was in charge of administering drugs to the animals. But having found it much more lucrative to sell these same drugs to humans, was arrested and sent back to Madrid, where he tried his hand as a playwright, achieving both fame and infamy for his caustic wit. Finally, run out of town and up to his ears in debt, he worked his way southward, surviving scandal after intrigue after incarceration. He settled down in Seville, where he now earns his living as a barber by day and as a matchmaker and engineer of amorous intrigue by night, where his real profit lies. By the time the opera starts, he has earned fame as both master barber and master schemer. Rosina, daughter of a minor noble family, was suddenly orphaned when both her parents died. The royal court placed her into the guardianship of a nobleman of like rank, Doctor Bartolo, who is charged with her care until she reaches the age of majority, when she will gain control of her substantial financial inheritance. Doctor Bartolo found himself attracted to the charms of the young lady and, despite the vast difference in age, fell in love with her. As her legal guardian, having complete power to arrange a marriage for his ward, he decided to simply appoint himself as her future husband. Further, he designated her inheritance as the dowry due to him as her husband. He was in the process of working out this scheme when he learned of a suitor secretly pursuing his young ward. In a panic, he decided to re-locate to a house he owns in Seville. The young Count Almaviva, heir to the title and wealth of one of most powerful families in all of Spain, was about to be promised in an arranged marriage to a noblewoman he did not even know. Despairing over this familial obligation, he yearned to find true love—a woman who would love him for himself and not because he was Count Almaviva. One day at the Prado museum in Madrid, he saw a young woman and was immediately struck with love for her. He inquired after her identity and discovered she was the daughter of a certain nobleman named Doctor Bartolo. Before he could approach her, she suddenly disappeared from Madrid, and all attempts to find her in that city proved futile until, finally, he learned that she was relocated to Seville by Bartolo, who suspected that she was being pursued. In an act of desperation and in disobedience to the obligations of his title and family, he abandoned the royal court and traveled south, incognito, to the dangerous and fascinating city of Seville to find his beloved. Disguising himself as a poor student named Lindoro and armed only with as much gold as he could carry on his own and the name of his beloved’s father, he began an intense search for her whereabouts. In order to avoid detection, he went “underground” and hired a gypsy named Fiorello to help him track down the house of Doctor Bartolo. When he found the location, he remained beneath his beloved’s balcony day and night, sleeping in the courtyard under an abandoned wagon, hoping to catch a glimpse of her. Desperate, exhausted, and terrified of being robbed or worse, he decided, in a final act of desperation, to serenade his beloved, hoping to catch a glimpse of her and some sign of her favor. He has hired Fiorello to bring his gypsy clan to accompany the song he has written for his beloved. The Opera Act I Fiorello and his gypsy clan arrive at the pre-determined time, anxious about being discovered and jailed for loitering illegally in the courtyard of a nobleman. The Count wakes suddenly, and they accompany his serenade. When Rosina fails to appear, the Count crumbles in desperation, paying Fiorello much more than expected. This sparks a massive feeding frenzy among the gypsies, who first thank him profusely, then rob him of his remaining gold. Figaro, the infamous barber of Seville whose sideline is matchmaking, is preparing himself and his workers for their busiest time of the year, the Carnival season, when amorous intrigue and mayhem are the orders of the day. The Count recognizes his former servant and decides to enlist his help, explaining his situation. When he points out the house of his beloved, Figaro explains that he has complete access as the barber and adds that Rosina is not the daughter of Bartolo but only his ward. The Count is overjoyed at this stroke of luck and promises Figaro untold wealth if he will help him win his beloved. Figaro clears his busy schedule, bumping this project up to high priority.

Act II Rosina declares her love for Lindoro, the young student who has serenaded her beneath her balcony and determines to be victorious over her tyrannical guardian and to marry Lindoro at all costs. She writes him a note professing her love and begins to scheme about how to get it delivered. Her music teacher, Don Basilio, arrives with news for Doctor Bartolo. He has gotten wind that Count Almaviva is the secret suitor of Rosina and that the young nobleman has arrived in Seville to win her hand. This terrifies Doctor Bartolo: going up against such a powerful family could be dangerous. Basilio suggests a remedy, slander, which he has developed into a foolproof system capable of dispatching any adversary within a few days. Though intrigued, Bartolo decides he must move more quickly and marry the girl this very day to prevent Almaviva from succeeding in snatching away his beautiful ward. They begin drawing up the marriage contract. Figaro, having overheard this dastardly plot, reports it to Rosina, who laughs it off as ridiculous. Besides, she has more pressing matters, like how to convey her feelings to her lover without seeming too forward. She and Figaro play a little cat and mouse game on this subject, and she finally reveals the note she has written, eliciting a promise from Figaro that he will deliver it. Bartolo enters, having seen Figaro with his ward and begins questioning her with suspicions that Figaro may be helping Almaviva gain access to Rosina. She tells a pack of lies, narrowly escaping each trap Bartolo lays out for her. Bartolo, in exasperation, finally threatens her with house arrest if she persists, unveiling a monstrous contraption he has been constructing for just that purpose. Rosina runs to her room, weeping. A drunken soldier (Almaviva in disguise) arrives, producing a military billeting order to lodge in Bartolo’s house. Bartolo is stunned by this turn of events and produces an exemption he obtained from the royal court. This throws a monkey wrench into the Count’s plans, and he has to improvise. Complications mount, tempers flare, and the ensuing chaos brings the police force in to take action. After all witnesses have reported, the Sergeant at Arms decides it is the drunken soldier who must be arrested. In a coup de théâtre Almaviva privately reveals his true identity to the Sergeant, and the arrest order is reversed. Everyone is stunned. How could this have happened? This leads to even more chaos, and there is a fit of group insanity as the curtain falls on part one.

Intermission Act III Bartolo, completely baffled by the soldier episode, decides that Almaviva is somehow directly involved in this farce. Just then, a monk named Don Alonso (again, Almaviva in disguise) arrives, bestowing endless blessings upon the household. Bartolo knows he has seen his face somewhere before but cannot place it. When Alonso explains that he is a student of Basilio and is here to substitute for Rosina’s singing lesson due to the sudden illness of Basilio, Bartolo becomes suspicious and is about to throw the scoundrel out when Alonso produces the love note Rosina had written earlier. Bartolo is shocked. Alonso explains that he can solve Bartolo’s problem with Almaviva if he is permitted to speak with the girl in private. He will tell her that he got her note from the Count’s mistress and that the nobleman is only toying with her emotions in order to procure her sexually. Bartolo recognizes that this is slander—but it is also a brilliant solution. He gives Alonso, his new trusted friend, carte blanche with the girl. Rosina is brought in for her music lesson, and Alonso reveals his true identity to her, along with the plot Figaro and he have created to come to her balcony at midnight and rescue her from Bartolo. But he has no opportunity to warn her about the lie he had to invent regarding her love note. Chaos once again begins to mount as Figaro enters to give Bartolo a distracting shave, stealing a key from him, which can unlock her balcony grating. Suddenly, who should appear but Don Basilio to give the beautiful Rosina her lesson. Bartolo is confused again until Alonso tells him that Basilio knows nothing about the love note plot and that he must be kept in the dark, or their plan will be destroyed. Bartolo sees the wisdom of this course of action and plays along with the others in trying to get rid of Basilio. Sensing that something is up, Basilio takes advantage of the situation by blackmailing each participant in exchange for his leaving the house. Once he is gone, the love note slander is back on track. Just as Alonso is about to finally explain that aberation to Rosina, Bartolo discovers the treachery and explodes in fury. Figaro and Almaviva barely escape his wrath. Bartolo meets with Basilio, who explains that Alonso was not working for the Count but was actually the Count himself. In a panic, Bartolo sends Basilio to get the notary to execute his marriage to Rosina immediately while Bartolo destroys any love Rosina might have for her beloved Lindoro by slandering him. When he breaks the news to Rosina, she is crushed and, in an act of vengeance, agrees to marry Bartolo, who is thrilled. A violent thunderstorm erupts. Figaro and the Count arrive at Rosina’s balcony to begin the elopement proceedings. Rosina rebuffs them both, revealing that she now knows her beloved Lindoro was only acting as a pimp for the lecherous Count. Though stunned, the Count asks whether Rosina truly loved her Lindoro. She admits the depth of her feeling for him and the pain she now feels. Overjoyed at having won her sincere love, the Count now reveals his true identity, and all is cleared up between them. Suddenly, the young ward will become a Countess. The celebrations are cut short by the arrival of Basilio and the Notary. Figaro suggests they depart by way of the ladder that they used to enter Rosina’s balcony. But they soon discover the ladder is missing. In a stroke of genius, Figaro co-opts the Notary, who weds the Count and Rosina on the spot. When Bartolo breaks into the room with the police force, he insists the intruders must be arrested. Once again Count Almaviva reveals his identity and the fact that Rosina is now his wife. Bartolo capitulates and gives his blessing on their union. All celebrate as the clock strikes twelve and Carnival begins.

Director’s Note For this production, we have tried to get under the skin of Il barbiere di Siviglia, to seek out fresh interpretations of each character and each situation, to preserve a feeling of period while instilling it with a contemporary sensibility. This particular opera, probably second only to Bizet’s Carmen, is mired in cliché and stereotype, bound by gimmicks that are 150 years old, stale, and predictable. This is the furthest thing from how the opera struck audiences at its inception. It was shocking in it extravagance, original in its wit and startling in its energy. The music still is, of course. Rossini, the man and the composer, was nothing if not a brilliant wit. He was anything but stodgy and conventional. Taking our cue from the spirit of the man and his opera, we have tried to explore the eccentric side of each character, the “dark side” if you will, without it becoming heavy. By grounding the style in a more or less realistic environment, we hope the “madness” of the plot and the behavior of the characters will come across as both more eccentric and believable. At the core of the piece is the conflict between order and chaos. Dr. Bartolo is an agent of control and tyranny, almost to the point of being obsessive. Figaro is the agent of chaos and liberty. When these two forces collide, brought together in battle by two young people in love, we have a conceptual triangle: Order–Chao–Love. Love brings everything together with its irresistible power, and even Bartolo capitulates to it in the end. Paralleling these three forces are three distinct scenic environments: Bartolo’s interior, Figaro’s shop, and the streets. Placing these three environments on a single turntable allows the spinning of the plot to echo in the rotation of the scenic environment. We should remember that Bartolo is Figaro’s father, which is revealed in the sequel, . The father and son are alike in key ways. In our production, Bartolo has an underbelly existence as a sort of mad scientist, grappling to reconcile scientific discoveries, such as the exploration of electricity and hypnosis, with the strict admonitions of the church. He is a walking contradiction: an old man who is madly in love, a religious man who studies science, the man of reason who is almost never in control of his emotions. Figaro is also multi-faceted, not only in his abilities, skills, and talents but also because, though he worships gold, he has a heart of gold. He is both opportunistic and idealistic in the extreme. The comical and farcical aspects of the piece bloom because of these contradictions of character, and it is the universal healing power of true love that reconciles everything.

— Nicholas Muni Rossini’s Opera Based on Beaumarchais’s Musical Play by Nik Taylor When Rossini and Sterbini chose to adapt Pierre Beaumarchais’s play Le barbier de Séville as an opera, they were selecting a work that had a long musical past. Beaumarchais had originally conceived the story for a comic opera libretto, a version that was never set to music and performed. But when a revised play version premièred in 1775, its many musical moments included original songs by the French violinist and composer Antoine-Laurent Baudron. In 1782, in response to the continued triumph of the play, the composer Giovanni Paisiello wrote an exceptionally successful operatic version of the story that was performed in many of Europe’s major musical centers well into the nineteenth century. Between the première of Paisiello’s work and Rossini’s in 1816, a total of four other operatic versions were composed, demonstrating the strong connection between music and Beaumarchais’s comedic play. One of the reasons for this association was that the characters in Le barbier de Séville were similar to the stock types in contemporary comedic opera. In addition, the original spoken text contains a number of memorable musical moments, including the Count’s serenade below Rosina’s window and the comedic music lesson. Beaumarchais’s play was thus a natural choice for an opera because music played a central role. Rossini and Sterbini greatly expanded one of the first and most important musical moments of Beaumarchais’s play: Count Almaviva’s serenade. In the play, the music in this section is relatively short; the Count speaks of his love for Rosina, though he has never met her; Figaro enters composing a song, learns of the Count’s desires, and coaches the Count through a serenade for his beloved in which he introduces himself as the poor “Lindoro.” Rossini and Sterbini reorganized and added to this episode for a more satisfying musical display. Their opera begins with a band of musicians quietly setting up for an another serenade— one that does not occur in Beaumarchais’s work—opulently scored for guitar, solo winds, and many other instruments. In Rossini’s opera, this added musical number introduces the Count as a romantic character deeply enchanted by the young Rosina. After Figaro’s entrance aria, the famous “Largo al factotum della città,” the barber encourages the Count to sing yet another, more modest serenade accompanied only by guitar. This second song intensifies our understanding of the Count’s romantic intentions with Rosina. Rossini and Sterbini expanded upon the simple opening of Beaumarchais’s play by setting not only the original serenade but by adding another, enriching the musical scene at the beginning of the opera. Rossini also adds music to the play in Rosina’s music lesson with the Count, who is then disguised as “Alonso,” under the close supervision of Bartolo. Rosina decides to sing “Contro un cor che accende amore,” an aria full of trills, runs, and other elaborate bel canto embellishments. This ornate style bores Bartolo, who has been in and out of sleep during her performance, allowing Rosina and the Count a moment to enjoy each other’s company. Bartolo responds to Rosina’s sophisticated performance with a primitive tune from his youth. His song, “Quando mi sei vicina,” is simple, old-fashioned, and in a strict dance meter— drastically different from Rosina’s aria. Rossini’s careful choice of musical styles and their connotations for contemporary audiences underlines the generational and cultural differences between Rosina and Bartolo. While Rossini and Sterbini were certainly not the first to set Beaumarchais’s story to music, their Il barbiere di Siviglia is by far the most famous today. Perhaps one reason for this is their musical expansion of the original story. Rossini’s music in these scenes does not simply fulfill the original stage directions but rather they deepen our understanding of the characters, their emotions and their situations in ways only music can.
