L'italiana in Algeri (The Italian Girl in Algiers) is an operatic dramma giocoso in two acts by Gioachino Rossini to an Italian libretto by Angelo Anelli, based on his earlier text set by Luigi Mosca. The music is characteristic of Rossini's style, remarkable for its fusion of sustained, manic energy with elegant, pristine melodies. “L'italiana in Algeri (The Italian Girl in Algiers)” is a two-act opera buffa by Gioachino Rossini, with a libretto by Angelo Anelli. It premiered at the Teatro San Benedetto in Venice on May 22, 1813. “L'italiana in Algeri” is the first opera buffa that Rossini wrote shortly after his first full-length work, “Tancredi.” Recorded live at the Teatro Municipale Romolo Valli in Reggio Emilia, Italy, on Sunday, February 22, 2026, at 3:30 P.M.
