Er soll dein Herr sein from the operette Gasparone - Score

Theater an der Wien, Vienna, 26 January Thalia Theater, New York, 21 February The synopsis follows the original version. The version by Ernst Steffan, which is most frequently heard and which introduces the song 'Dunkelrote Rosen', offers a substantial rewriting of both book and score.

A band of smugglers approach a seaside inn and begin concealing a ship's cargo of sugar and coffee in the cellar.

The landlord of the inn, Benozzo, is the nephew of the leader of the smugglers, Massaccio, and he has circulated the rumour that the notorious bandit, Gasparone, is again active in Sicily in order to set the customs officers off on a false trail and keep them occupied away from the activities at the inn. As a result of Benozzo's well laid stories, the mayor of Syracuse, Nasoni, is even now on the bandit's trail together with a posse of customs officers.

The conversation between Massaccio and Benozzo is overheard by a young nobleman, Erminio, and his friend Luigi, but the price of their silence is soon enough agreed. Count Erminio happens to have acquired an admiration for a widowed countess, Carlotta, and it is arranged that Massaccio and Benozzo will waylay the coach carrying the Countess Carlotta and carry off her old dragon of a duenna, Zenobia.

Erminio will then appear on the scene as Carlotta's saviour. The customs officers arrive, despairing of their unavailing search for Gasparone and Nasoni is discussing with Benozzo whether the bandit has actually been seen in Sicily, when the landlord's wife, Sara, arrives crying for assistance for the Countess Carlotta, who has been attacked by bandits. However, before Nasoni can go to her assistance, the Countess arrives on the scene with a description of how she was rescued from her attackers by a gallant gentleman.

When Count Erminio appears following his gallant 'rescue' of Carlotta, Nasoni notices that his glances and hers are already meeting with a disturbing frequency.

Since he is himself hoping to marry his son Sindulfo to the rich Countess in order to improve his family's finances, he insinuates that Count Erminio is the bandit Gasparone, but Erminio laughs off the suggestion. The Countess's old duenna, Zenobia, sweeps in, reporting that the bandits have not only freed her but given her two ducats to help her on her way. She and Nasoni watch with concern and interest the seeming decline in the Countess's interest in Nasoni's son. As mayor, Nasoni happens to know that a lawsuit the widowed Countess has been conducting to secure a considerable inheritance will shortly end in her favour and he intends that, before she learns of her resultant millions, she should become engaged to Sindulfo.

Sindulfo, however, is a good-for-nothing fellow who spends much of his time chasing after Benozzo's young wife. This fact does not go unnoticed by Erminio and, when he and Countess Carlotta find themselves alone, he warns her about the unscrupulous pair. Nasoni manages to persuade Carlotta that he can help sway the outcome of her legal case and, although Carlotta knows she does not love Sindulfo, she finally gives Nasoni her word that she will marry his son in return for his assistance.

Conveniently, news now comes of the result of the judgement and the mayor unfolds a scroll and proceeds to read the verdict, detailing the extent of Carlotta's wealth.

With the exception of Erminio, everyone is very happy for the Countess, Benozzo rushes in with the news that the prospective bridegroom, Sindulfo, has been kidnapped. It is the work of Gasparone, who has left a note demanding a ransom of 10, zechinen.

Nasoni does not have the money to pay, but Carlotta at once agrees to find it and the wily Benozzo agrees to act as go-between in taking the ransom to Gasparone. In the ballroom of the castle of Santa Croce much merrymaking and dancing is taking place to celebrate the engagement of the Countess and Sindulfo while, in an adjoining room containing a safe holding Carlotta's newly acquired millions, Marietta, Sora and Zenobia are deep in conversation.

Sora and Marietta are surprised that the Countess should go through with her engagement to Sindulfo in view of her evident attraction to Erminio, while the old duenna is still sulking over the fact that her encounter with the supposed Gasparone ended with her not even being deemed worthy of a ransom. Nasoni is in a fearful rage, since his son has still not been released by Gasparone, but Countess Carlotta is perfectly happy in the company of Erminio as they go off to the ballroom together. Meanwhile Benozzo, with a fresh cargo of contraband to attend to, is wondering how he can get away from his unsuspecting wife Sora, but he ends up admitting his smuggling activities to her.
