Mozart may be the greatest, but few would dispute that Rossini
(1792-1868) is the most entertaining of all composers. His tunes are catchy,
his ensembles are thrilling, and his arias and duets are showpieces for
great singers, with embellishments and roulades to dazzle and beguile. He
can touch both the heart and the funny bone with equal assurance. Here
are his essential recordings.
