Description

Interesting for the history of this work, the dedication of Giovannina Lucca, dated Milan, December 22, 1881: addressed to the Masters Bazzini, Dominiceti and Ponchielli, and the dedication gives it to them "is the title of a second and no less legitimate paternity". In reality, the work, begun in 1839, and remained unfinished for a legal dispute with the director of the Paris Opera. The same libretto by Scribe, was painted for the Sicilian Vespers by Giuseppe Verdi. The work donizettiana, purchased by Giovannina Lucca, which was completed on the basis of the notes of Donizetti by his pupil Matteo Salvi, with the collaboration of the three musicians mentioned in the dedication. The duke of Alba was represented for the first time in Rome, at the Teatro Apollo, 22 march 1882. Nice frontispiece of the ornate. The score is given the libretto of the opera on two columns
