| 1950-An unscheduled bit of business in the Barber of Seville occurred when Baccaloni, the Bartolo, sat down hard enough on a chair during the shaving scene to cave it in. This was a different kind of bend from the cute phrase-curling, which Baccaloni employed through the years for comic effect. |
| 1968 - Rossi-Lemeni’s Basilio was grand in the Chaliapin tradition: he strutted, careened, and mopped himself after his aria, not with one, but two large pocket handkerchiefs. |

| 2006 - Phillip Ens as Basilio, sang well, but with an ever-present Germanic tinge./ Review |
| 2006 - The Don Basilio of Bruno di Simone was sung and acted in authentic commedia style. His masterfully shaped recitatives revealed the multifaceted colorations and innuendos available in Rossini interpretation. However, Maestro Barbacini’s runaway tempo in the virtuoso patter section of Basilio’s aria turned Rossini’s playful tongue twister from buoyant merriment to arduous task./ Review |
