Figaro Overtures Today I would like to share with you two overtures, one from the opera The Marriage of Figaro, composed in 1786 by Austrian composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, and the other from the opera The Barber of Seville, composed thirty years later by Italian composer Gioachino Rossini. Both operas are based on plays by French playwright Pierre Beaumarchais, and both feature the clever and very entrepreneurial character Figaro, who happens to be a barber.
