Summary:

Wolf-Ferrari wrote La vedova scaltra as pure amusement, a portrayal of fine intrigue that is, in itself, without any idealistic echoes, following the uncritical line of eighteenth-century comedy -- nostalgia for a civilization with ancient roots, which the musician still felt he was part of.
