i made an English language adaptation of this duet from the obscure opera Ricciardo e Zoraide by Rossini. You can't tell me fans of musicals wouldn't love opera like this if it was in English and wasn't treated like some super highbrow activity

in dogpit discord people who know how to music were explaining this feels weirdly modern because the mode it uses for the good guy characters near the end was traditionally only used for sinister stuff; only in modern times has it seen regular use in other situations (like the simpsons theme lol)

every modern comedy with a "totally innocent situation that looks sexually incriminating when the worst person walks in at the worst time" scene owes a debt to The Marriage of Figaro (1786)
