Singer

Considered by many to be Bellini's most beautiful score, La sonnambula was written at a time when stage works involving somnambulism (sleepwalking) where all the rage in Paris.  As was often the case during this period, the work was written with a specific singer in mind, in this case, the legendary soprano Giuditta Pasta.

The story takes placec in a Swiss village. Amina is preparing to marry Elvino. Lisa, who is also in love with Elvino, resents Amina and the joyful celebrations taking place in the village on the occasion of their marriage.  Alesio is interested in Lisa but she rejects him.  A stranger arrives as the notary is in the process of marrying Elvino and Amina.
