Ma signor / Mi par d'esser con la testa (The Barber of Seville Act 1 Finale)

This is the Act 1 finale of Gioachino Rossini's comic opera The Barber of Seville (Il Barbiere di Siviglia). Count Almaviva, in disguise as a drunk soldier, was about to be arrested when he secretly showed the police the insignia of the Grandees of Spain, proof of his nobility, and was released no questions asked. At the point that this video begins, Dr. Bartolo is upset by what he sees as a miscarriage of justice. His objections going unheard evidently causes some sort of mental breakdown. This is part of my project to sing all of The Barber of Seville by myself. You can check out the rest here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnvSyiLebJCf32VA77KGXeTazrJTcLmY7 I am an amateur and I just sing for fun, so if you are seeking a professional performance you should bail right now. Otherwise please enjoy my rare vocal type (contralto profondo, sometimes called a female baritone) and freakish five octave range ❤️ PREVIOUS: https://youtu.be/XGXjNYOOoOg NEXT: https://youtu.be/0lGJYhg9j3M 0:00 Ma signor! 0:27 Mi par d'esser con la testa 1:28 E il cervello poverello 2:20 Mi par d'esser con la testa 3:19 E il cervello poverello
