Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756–1791) — compositore austrian, periodo Classical.

Trama di The Jewel Box

Four characters from the commedia dell'arte (Dottore, Pantalone, Colombina and Pedrolino) open the opera with a quartet. There is no more music, so the Dottore summons the Composer, who, with the aid of a singer of tragic music and his own father, gradually works out how the opera should go. The opera ends with an epilogue sung by the Composer.
