Descripción en Youtube:
L'equivoco stravagante is a "dramma giocoso per musica" in two acts by Gioachino Rossini.
Performed at the Rossini Opera Festival 2008, this opera can count on an all-star cast: a sparkling Bruno de Simone as Gamberotto, clever and funny Marco Vinco in the role of Buralicchio and charming Marina Prudenskaja as Ernestina.
The opera stages the typical situation of an unwanted marriage: to escape the rich braggart and preserve her young but poor lover, the young girl pretends to be a castrated boy. Seasoned with a sparkling language, made up of bold neologisms and licentious double meanings, Gasbarris libretto provides a glimpse into modernity, while Rossinis music already contains the melodic invention, the frenzied rhythm, the musical electricity that within just a few months were to project the composer unstoppably towards worldwide success.
