'''{{lang|it| La Molinara}}''', also called '''{{lang|it|L'amor contrastato}}''' is an opera by [[Giovanni Paisiello]], after a libretto by [[Giuseppe Palomba]].<ref name="Wiki"/>. There seem to be different versions: The one from Parma<ref name="Parma"/>, Teatro di Corte 1791 does not have the ''"[[Nel cor più non mi sento]]"'' at all. That such a popular piece would be cut is unlikely, so this would validate future research.  
'''{{lang|it| La Molinara}}''' (engl: The Beautiful Miller), also called '''{{lang|it|L'amor contrastato}}''' (The Thwarted Love) is an opera by [[Giovanni Paisiello]], after a libretto by [[Giuseppe Palomba]].<ref name="Wiki"/>. There seem to be different versions: The one from Parma<ref name="Parma"/>, Teatro di Corte, 1791, does not have the ''"[[Nel cor più non mi sento]]"'' at all. (That such a popular piece would be cut is unlikely, so this would validate future research.) The one from Naples, Teatro di Fiorentini 1789<ref name="Naples"/>, does, as well as the 1810 libretto from La Scala<ref name="Scala"/>.  
The one from Naples, Teatro di Fiorentini 1789<ref name="Naples"/>, does, as well as the 1810 libretto from La Scala<ref name="Scala"/>. Unfortunately, the manuscript from Naples 1789 Naples does not list the cast. Different sources are required.


"Amor più non mi sento" from ''L'amor contrastato'' appears on the following album:
International premiere dates have to be taken with a grain of salt: "L'Amor Contrasto, in 1795, was by the theatre management hailed as new, when it still was the ''La Molinarella'', later ''La Molinara'', having its King's [Theatre] premiere in 1791."<ref name="Fenner"/>

The opera unites many well-loved tropes. The plot is lively and comical, so it comes as no surprise that the opera stayed internationally popular long after its inception.

==Synopsis==


Giuseppe Palomba Giovanni Paisiello
The comedy revolves around the character of the beautiful and mischievous Rachelina, owner of a mill, flattered by the attention of two men (the nobleman Calloandro and the notary Pistofolo) and undecided as to which of the two to choose as suitor. The game is fun but dangerous because it can awaken the jealousy of Baroness Eugenia, feudal lord of the place and also promised to Calloandro.<ref name="Operamanager"/>


The scene is on the estate of the Baroness, near Naples.<ref>Naples</ref>
