Berta in The Barber of Seville

Rossini’s rollicking The Barber of Seville returns to Opera San José, offering an upbeat comedy for
operagoers of all ages. Subtitled “The Useless Precaution,” this opera buffa introduces the
rapscallion barber Figaro, who uses all his wiles to assist the love-struck Count Almaviva in liberating
his true love Rosina from the clutches of her guardian, Dr. Bartolo. A comic masterpiece fizzing with
entertaining hijinks and memorable melodies, initial casting includes a star turn by bass-baritone
Dale Travis, recent winner of the San Francisco Opera Medal, as Dr. Bartolo and tenor Joshua
Sanders returning as Count Almaviva. Mezzo-soprano Courtney Miller and bass-baritone Vartan
Gabrielian round out the cast of this fast-paced comedy as Berta and Basilio, respectively, with
additional casting to be announced. Opera San José Director of Music Joseph Marcheso will
conduct.
