El tutor burlat
LES ARTS VOLANT - GIRA 2022
From September 23th to October 2nd 2022
EL TUTOR BURLAT
Vicente Martín i Soler
Opera buffa in three acts
Libreto de Filippo Livigni, based upon La finta semplice ossia Il Tutore Burlato by Pasquale Mililotti
It is friendly, cheerful and
fresh as the landscape of the Roman countryside where the plot
takes place. This first comedy by Vicente Martín i Soler develops
from veiled criticism of the ironclad social rules established in
the mid-18th century to the defence of freedom and love above
conventional mores and interests, while demonstrating with
easy-going discernment the new social position of women in the
years before the French Revolution.

Synopsis
Don Lelio confesses to his servant Anselmo that he is in love with
Violante, the pupil of his friend Fabrizio, who wants to marry her
for her money, although she spurns him. Don Lelio asks for his
permission to woo her and Fabrizio reluctantly accepts. Violante
claims she does not believe in love, until she meets Pippo, a rich
shepherd from her town. Each of the three men deploys a number of
intrigues, jealousies and tricks to win over the girl. Finally, the
flame of love is ignited between Pippo and Violante, who with the
help of the tutor’s daughter Menica manage to teach a lesson to the
other two suitors. They all meet at the end to sing to the triumph
of love.
