Rome Opera News:

Born in 16th-century Florence, nurtured in Venice, and revered in Milan, the opera is the greatest musical innovation in Italian history. Invented by the Camerata, an artsy clique of Florentine poets, noblemen, authors, and musicians, opera began as an attempt to recreate the dramas of ancient Greece by setting lengthy poems to music. As opera spread from Florence to Venice, Milan, and Rome, the styles and forms of the genre grew increasingly distinct. Contemporaneous with the birth of opera was the emergence of the oratorio. Introduced by the Roman priest St. Philip Neri, the oratorio set biblical text to dramatic choral and instrumental accompaniment.

More Rome Opera News:

In opera, Baroque ostentation yielded to classical demands of moderation. To today's opera buffs, The words "Italian opera" generally connote Rossini, Bellini, Donzietti, Verdi, and Puccini---all composers of the 19th and early 20th centuries. Giuseppe Verdi had become a national icon by mid-life, writing such masterpieces as as the tragic, triumphal Ada, and La Traviata. Another great composer of the period, Gioacchino Rossini, boasted that he could produce music faster than copyists could reproduce it, but he proved such an infamous procrastinator that his agents resorted to locking him in a room with a single plate of spaghetti until he finished composing. Apparently that was some pretty amazing spaghetti, as his Barber of Seville remains a favorite of modern audiences. Finally, Giacomo Puccini, composer of Madama Butterfly, deserves a nod for his kick-ass female characters (despite their various predispositions toward ending in tuberculosis or violent suicide).
