Le Comte Ory: Opéra en deux actes by Rossini, Delestre-Poirson, and Scribe

"Le Comte Ory: Opéra en deux actes" by Rossini, Delestre-Poirson, and Scribe is a comic opera composed in 1828. Set during the Crusades, this farcical tale follows Count Ory's elaborate schemes to seduce Countess Adèle while her brother is away at war. The resourceful count disguises himself first as a wise hermit, then as a nun, attempting to infiltrate the countess's castle. Meanwhile, his own page Isolier also loves the countess and unwittingly reveals his romantic plans to the disguised count, who plots to use them for his own advantage.
