Ivanhoé is an 1826 pastiche opera in three acts with music by Gioachino Rossini to a French-language libretto by Emile Deschamps and Gabriel-Gustave de Wailly, after Walter Scott's novel of the same name. The music was adapted, with the composer's permission, by the music-publisher Antonio Pacini from Rossini's operas Semiramide, La Cenerentola, La gazza ladra, Tancredi and Zelmira in order to introduce his music to Paris. The work was premiered on September 15th, 1826, at the Odéon.^[1]
