- Overture
- Softly, sir. Over here. Don't make a sound
- Stars in their fevered burning alone can see me yearning
- Well, Fiorello?
- You need a barber in Seville? That's me!
- Ha, ha! Isn't this the life!
- If you wish to know who waits here sighing
- What happened? Someone has discovered her
- At the very sight of gold, I'm inclined to do what I'm told
- I'm feeling heady. It starts already
- In my heart I hear his voice calling to me with a soul on fire
- Oh yes, the game is mine!
- Then it's me, me he adores so?
- Now I feel so much better. Clever Figaro will deliver my letter
- Ah, you think that you mislead me, but you're in for a surprise
- Did I hear someone arguing?
- Where's the mashter? Where's the mishtresh?
- Oh, where is my dear Rosina?
- You are a monster!
- Frozen and motionless, just like a monument
- If I may
- No, you don't!
- And what am I to think now?
- Peace and joy be yours forever
- Allow me, sir, one question.
- From dreams of love I now awaken
- So you think that's funny, do you now?
- Don Basilio! Here comes trouble!
- Buenas noches, Don Basilio!
- This place is a madhouse!
- Storm
- At last, sir, we have arrived!
- Could I ever have imagined such a moment?
- Let's be quiet, calm and clever, no more time for idle chatter
- Now here's a pretty pickle! What shall we do?
- Nothing makes a man so happy as two hearts that beat together
- I see now. Clearly, it was all my fault!
- So here's a happy ending. The lovers are united.
