Torvaldo e Dorliska
Torvaldo e Dorliska is an operatic dramma semiserio in two acts by Gioachino Rossini to an Italian libretto by Cesare Sterbini, based on the novel/memoir "" (1787–1790) by the revolutionary Jean-Baptiste Louvet de Couvrai, whose work was the source of the "Lodoïska" libretto set by Luigi Cherubini (1791), and "Lodoiska" set by Stephen Storace (1794), and Simon Mayr (1796).

"Torvaldo e Dorliska" is a rescue opera with an eventual happy ending. The inclusion of buffo roles is the reason for its designation as a 'semiserio' work, similar to Rossini's "La gazza ladra".
