One of this composer's overtures calls for the second violins to tap the music stands with their bows.
One of this composer's overtures calls for the second violins to tap the music stands with their bows. This composer of Il Signor Bruschino wrote a work in which one character helps Elvira regain the love of her husband; that work ends with Isabella sailing away with Lindoro. A character in another opera by this man sings of plans to drive his rival out of town in La calunnia è un venticello; that character is the music-master Basilio. He wrote L'italiani in algieri, and his last opera (*) features a galop in the overture reminiscent of a cavalry charge. The title character of his most famous opera enters with Largo al factotum and helps Count Almaviva win the love of Rosina. For 10 points, name this Italian composer of William Tell and The Barber of Seville.
