La Locandiera (Vienna, 1773) was a significantly successful Salieri's opera during the 1770's but declined and disappeared by the end of the 18th century. We have to acknowledge in this opera a composer with a balanced approach between libretto and music, but who uses a simple scoring as compared with a similar age Mozart. The libretto by Carlo Goldoni, has moral overtones denouncing the arrogance of the nobility against the emergence of the bourgeoise class, and the female hipocrisy.
