Kitri, an innkeeper’s daughter steals out of the house to meet her beloved, the barber Basilio. Her father, Lorenzo sees the lovers and sends Basilio away, bringing Kitri to tears. Now comes the rich nobleman Camacho, who, likewise is in love with Kitri and goes to Lorenzo and asks for his daughter’s hand. The innkeeper accepts with a delight, but Kitri, appalled at the thought of wedding the fobbish nobleman, runs away. And so…begins the splashy and colorful tale of a tempestuous love affair full of comic twists and turns. Ludwig Minkus was court composer of the Imperial Russian Ballet in St. Petersburg and his ballet music sparkles with joy and enchantment.
