Mosè in Egitto was Rossini’s twenty-fourth opera at its premiere on 5 March 1818 and the fourth of the nine opera seria he composed for the Royal Theatres of Naples during his musical directorship. The date of the premiere, during Lent, determined the biblical connotations of the subject-matter just as it had done with his Ciro in Babilonia composed for Ferrara and premiered there on 14 March 1812. The intrusion of the sacred into the theatre before and during the primo ottocento reflected both the function of the theatre in Italy and the influence of the Catholic Church. Every evening the social life of the locality reflected in the clientele was played out in the boxes of the opera houses, with opera being the main entertainment across the social divide, different theatres often having their own patrons. Meanwhile, the restrictive nature of the ordinances of the Catholic Church forbade the performance of opera during Lent. At the turn of the 18th century the Church, ever seeking to control the emotions of the populace, used the excuse of escape from the ravages of an earthquake to ban the popular staged performances of opera for five years as an act of thanksgiving. As a result, oratorios of ever more dramatic undercurrent became the substitute. They may not have been staged as operas, but the emotions conveyed were clear to the audience. By Rossini’s time it was common practice for theatres to present operas during Lent as long as they were based on Biblical themes. This is the case with Mosè in Egitto, with the caveat that in the opera the Biblical and interpersonal relationships are clearly separated, with the latter predominantly confined to the arias and duets while the biblical drama is the domain of the scenes with chorus and ensemble.
For presentation at the San Carlo during Lent in 1819 - the basis of Charles and Patricia Bruner’s Critical Edition and of this recording - Rossini made several revisions. Most important was the addition of the choral prayer Dal tuo stellato soglio in act three. This, with its soaring melody, became the most popular number in the piece and helped to maintain the work through to the present day. (Robert J Farr)
