As Jakov Gotovac’s most successful and most popular work, the opera Ero the Joker has been considered one of the best Slavic comic operas for a long time. Since its premiere in the Croatian
National Theatre in 1935, it has been an almost constant part of the repertoires of all Croatian national theatres. Many reviews of productions on foreign stages consider Ero the symbol of Croatian opera that brings the songs and dances of its homeland to the world, where the lyrics and music are impeccably intertwined.

The chromatic musical scale, rich orchestration, lively rhythms, and melodic vocal lines that flow continuously are closely tied to the exceptional libretto by Milan Begović, which is full of humorous and witty verses. 

The main character of the opera and the central figure of the narrative is Mica, a young man from a wealthy rural family in Dalmatinska Zagora. While looking for a girl he could marry, he follows his mother’s advice and pretends to be a poor man. He introduces himself as Ero from another world, and wants to be certain that his chosen one, Đula, truly loves him. Although he tricks many, in the end they forgive everything and he gets the girl he loves.
The vigorous ballet finale of the opera, with its frenzied tempo, is an ode of sorts to a rural way of life, wherein the music, full of the ethos of the Dalmatian hinterland, swells to prominence.
