Opera The Elixir of Love
Comic opera by Donizetti, sung in English. Written in just six weeks in 1832, this greatest of Italian comic operas also has moments of real pathos, notably Nemorino’s much-loved aria Una furtiva lagrima. The story features Dulcamara, an itinerant ‘quack’ doctor who arrives in town to sell his bottles of elixir, a cure for all ills. Unrequited love & courtship, disappointment & delight, secrecy & proposals - but who marries whom?
