Opera buffa (in Neapolitan dialect)
Libretto: Gennaro Antonio Federico
Premier: September 27, 1732, Teatro dei Fiorentini
Recorded: 1989, Teatro alla Scala, Milan
A rare recording of Pergolesi's second opera, a comic and colourful tale of tangled love in which three girls resist their arranged marriages in pursuit of the same young man. Rediscovered by conductor Riccardo Muti, this forgotten jewel sparkles in its 1989 period production.
