However, Cammarano withdrew, leaving the task to Giacomo Sacchero, who worked on an opera for Vienna dedicated to Caterina Cornaro, the last queen of Cyprus. Donizetti began composing in the autumn of 1842 but had to suspend his work upon discovering that a similar opera was being staged in Vienna. in 1843, he then proposed the opera to the San Carlo Theater in Naples, but due to his deteriorating health, he was unable to oversee its production. The absence of the composer and the censorship imposed on the opera compromised its success, leading to a lukewarm reception and a swift withdrawal from the stage. Donizetti attempted to present it again in Vienna, without success, and later in Parma, where it was staged in 1845. However, this version was not significantly different from the Neapolitan one, as the composer, once again, was unable to supervise its production. The modern critical edition has reconstructed the opera according to the composer's original intent, restoring the censored and omitted sections. Restored to its original form, Caterina Cornaro is now available to performers and scholars, representing one of the boldest experiments of Donizetti's final creative period. Moreover, its political themes make it a key work of Italian melodrama from the 1840s, reflecting the European peoples' desire for self-determination.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Ricordi","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42821078450255,"sku":"NR142137","price":699.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0900\/1828\/files\/d29c561a096b82d46216052e9e768d6d.jpg?v=1766788628"},{"product_id":"donizetti-caterina-cornaro-ricordi-1","title":"Donizetti: Caterina Cornaro","description":"\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComposer\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003ca href=\"\/ja\/collections\/gaetano-donizetti\"\u003eGaetano Donizetti (1797-1848)\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLibrettist\u003c\/strong\u003e: Giacomo Sacchero\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Vocal Score - \u003ca href=\"\/ja\/pages\/format-descriptions\"\u003eFormat guide\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong class=\"original-instrumentation-title\"\u003eInstrumentation\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cspan class=\"original-instrumentation\"\u003eOpera\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWork\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003ca href=\"\/ja\/collections\/donizetti-caterina-cornaro\"\u003eCaterina Cornaro\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"binding hidden\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBinding\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWork language\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cspan class=\"book-language\"\u003eItalian\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISMN\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cspan class=\"book-barcode\"\u003e9790041421407\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cspan class=\"book-width\"\u003e7.9\u003c\/span\u003e x \u003cspan class=\"book-length\"\u003e10.6\u003c\/span\u003e inches\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"book-pages\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePages\u003c\/strong\u003e: 380\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"one-half columns\"\u003e \u003ch4\u003eDescription\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"feature_divider\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eCaterina Cornaro\u003c\/em\u003e was the last of Donizetti's revised melodramas to debut during composer's lifetime. From what we've been able to reconstruct, a host of anomalies regarding the work's ontogeny come to light, including a sudden interruption in Donizetti's work on the opera, which led to what would be, for the composer, an unusually drawn-out undertaking; a change in venues – from Vienna to Naples, over the course of six months; censorial interference that effectively sabotaged the production; and the fact that Donizetti himself did not preside over rehearsals for the only two performances of the opera during the 19th century. Given the opera's beleaguered history, we opted to base the critical edition of Caterina Cornaro on Donizetti's original score, which is to say, the composition that the author sent to production before any third parties meddled with it. Thus, the newly restored version of Gaetano Donizetti's Caterina Cornaro is at long last available to performers and academics. It is surely one of the composer's boldest works from his intense period of experimentation with the melodrama genre, which Donizetti further explored during the final phase of his career.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Ricordi","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44491112382543,"sku":"CP142140","price":53.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0900\/1828\/files\/4c4f8a7ab890ca97a2e513a1f52d63ee.jpg?v=1771457236"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.ficksmusic.com\/ja\/collections\/donizetti-caterina-cornaro.oembed","provider":"Ficks Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
