Opera in three parts, in Italian with Hungarian and English surtitles.
Homecoming Moor is driven to jealousy by an ensign who is equally jealous having been passed over for lieutenant. The ensign continues to machinate as long as the fellow who didn’t get passed over for lieutenant remains lieutenant, and even casts the suspicion of being the Moor’s wife’s sweetheart over him, whereupon the Moor does away with his wife. After realising he has been had, he jabs a dagger into himself. Domestic violence, baritone monster and tenor terror in a classic from the aging Verdi.
