Its subject is a centuries-old Spanish legend about a libertine as told by playwright Tirso de Molina in his 1630 play '' El burlador de Sevilla y convidado de piedra''. It is a '' dramma giocoso'' blending comedy, melodrama and supernatural elements (although the composer entered it into his catalogue simply as '' opera buffa'').
