Chicago Opera Theater

Mosè in Egitto (Moses in Egypt)
by Gioachino Rossini

Although Rossini is often considered a comic composer his serious works are just as remarkable. This opera starts with the darkness of the plague in Ancient Egypt and ends with the Red Sea crashing down on the Pharaoh’s multitude. If selected, Chicago Opera Theater would be the first Chicago company in 145 years to present Mosè in Egitto.
