Two short duets

The Duetto buffo di due gatti ("humorous duet for two cats", or "cat duet") is a popular encore piece for two sopranos composed mostly of excerpts from Gioacchino Rossini's opera Otello. This version was animated in 1985 by the wonderful Italian illustrator, decorator, painter, animator and stage designer Emanuele Luzzati (1921–2007). See more of his works here.
