A Bunga-bunga Land Nightmare

T0660759824
Constanza and her servant Blonda are kidnapped in foreign territory and must resist the sexual and romantic advances of Pasha Selim and his harem guard Osim. The opera develops with a delirious twist as their counterparts Belmonte and Pedrillo set out to rescue them. Freedom, the control over women's sexualities and the tyranny of love appear as recurrent themes through the opera, with a delightful surprise ending full of Mozart's joyous enlightenment.
