 Rossini's influence began to pervade French "opéra comique".Its presence is felt in Boieldieu's greatest success, "La dame blanche" (1825) as well as later works by Auber ("Fra Diavolo", 1830; "Le domino noir", 1837), Hérold ("Zampa", 1831) and Adolphe Adam ("Le postillon de Longjumeau", 1836).In 1823, the Théâtre-Italien scored an immense coup when it persuaded Rossini himself to come to Paris and take up the post of manager of the opera house.
