* MainstreamObscurity: Many people will instantly recognize "Largo Al Factorum", but you'll be hard-pressed to find anyone who's seen the opera it's from or even know what the opera's name is. There are even people who don't know what the name of the ''song'' is.




to:

* SignatureSong: "Largo Al Factorum" is easily the most well-known song from the opera thanks to its frequent use in old cartoons. For a lot of people, this is the ''only'' song they know from it.

* CrowningMusicOfAwesome: Each of the four main characters gets at least one occasion to strut their stuff, then there's also Basilio's "La calunnia è un venticello", one of the most popular arias in the operatic bass register, and the orchestral accompanyment to the thunderstorm in act two. But by most peoples' estimation, the most recognizable song from the opera would be Figaro's aria "Largo al factotum", which has become a standard piece for baritones to show their skills.

* EnsembleCast: Which is the most important part in the opera, Almaviva (tenor), Figaro (baritone), Rosina (soprano) or Bartolo (light bass)[[note]] The Doctor's role and the opportunities for a singer to show off his virtuosity in the part were diminished by a number of cuts which had become traditional in many productions, but since the 1970s the cuts are usually restored.[[/note]]? Even the experts still can't decide and it can vary between productions according to the director, conductor and performers.

No, it meant the same thing back then. Watch \"A Tale Of Two Kitties\" (1942), it uses the bird as middle finger enthusiasm.
