Youth Introduction at 6.45 pm
Constance, Blonde and Pedrillo are prisoners of Bassa Selim at the Ottoman court in Istanbul. Belmonte, Constance's groom, plans to free them secretly, but the nocturnal action is discovered. Strangely enough, the punishment fails to materialize, and Bassa Selim lets the two couples go. The reason: Belmonte's father had once deprived the Bassa of office, home and wife when the Christians took over the rule of the country.
