Description:
It was popular at the time for operas to depict the rescue of enslaved Westerners from Muslim courts. This story portrays Zaide's effort to save her beloved, Gomatz.
Zaide has since been said to be the foundations of a masterpiece, and received critical acclaim. The tender soprano aria, Ruhe sanft, mein holdes Leben is the only number that might be called moderately familiar.
