Wikipedia description:

La diavolessa (The She-devil) is an opera (dramma giocoso) in 3 acts by Baldassare Galuppi. The Italian-language libretto was by Carlo Goldoni. It premiered in November 1755 at the Teatro San Samuele, Venice. Act 2 Finale has been indicated as "the most notable section of the opera", thanks to its capacity "to evoke mysterious powers through musical imageries", with "orchestral accompaniment continuous and rhythmically assertive". Arias have been judged "lively and with charming melodic ideas".
