Die Drei Pintos
“Pintos” concerns a fortune-hunter named Gaston, masquerading as husband-to-be Don Pinto in order to swindle wealthy arranged-marriage bride-to-be, Clarissa. He also employs her secret lover to swindle her father. So at once, there are three [Don] Pintos running around. Originally written by Carl Maria von Weber, the opera was finally completed by Gustav Mahler more than 60 years later.
