CAST: Sonia Ganassi (Elcia); Dmitry Korchak (Osiride); Riccardo Zanellato (Moses); Olga Senderskaya (Amaltea); Alex Esposito (Pharoah); Enea Scala (Mambre); Yijie Shi (Aaron); Chiara Amarù (Amenofi)

To skirt the official prohibition of opera performances during Lent, Rossini came up with an operatic take on the biblical story of Moses and the exodus from Egypt, complete with the parting of the Red Sea, as in Hollywood's The Ten Commandments. You might think of this one as "Rossini meets Cecil B. DeMille," with bass Riccardo Zanellato filling in for Charlton Heston.
