Shortly after this work premiered, basses began substituting Pietro Romani's less difficult "Manca un foglio" for its most important bass aria. The heroine is unmoved by the serenade "Ecco ridente in cielo" of Lindoro, but she expresses her desire for the hero by singing "Una voce poco fa." Its most popular orchestral piece is its overture, which was originally intended for Aureliano in Palmira. Its central plot is undone when Basilio is bribed to stand witness when Bartolo's tardiness in gathering troops forces him to abandon forcing his ward to marry him. For 10 points, name this opera in which the title character's trickery allows Almaviva to marry Rosina, by Gioacchino Rossini.
