- Summary
- "Through a virtuosic score for vocal ensemble, Vecchi brings alive the commedia dell'arte characters of late sixteenth-century Venice: mean-hearted merchant Pantalone, the verbose bogus doctor Gratiano, the braggart and over-amorous Spanish Captain, and a host of down-at-heel servants, the sanni."--Container.
