Sobre este artículo
New York: Program Publishing Company. Very Good+. 1974. Original Printed Wrappers. 44 pages; New York: Very Good+. 1974. 44 pages; Clean and secure in original printed wrappers. The opera is loosely based on the life of Robert Devereux, 2nd Earl of Essex, an influential member of the court of Queen Elizabeth I of England. The plot of Roberto Devereux was hardly original, mainly derived from Felice Romani's libretto Il Conte d'Essex of 1833, originally set by Saverio Mercadante. Romani's widow charged Cammarano with plagiarism; the practice of stealing plots was very common between rival Italian opera houses. It is one of a number of operas by Donizetti which deal with the Tudor period of English history and which include Anna Bolena (Henry VIII's second wife, Anne Boleyn) , Maria Stuarda (Mary, Queen of Scots) and Il castello di Kenilworth. The lead female characters -Anna Bolena, Maria Stuarda, and Elisabetta herself have been referred to as the "Three Donizetti Queens. " They became popular in the 1970s, when the American soprano Beverly Sills promoted them as a series at New York City Opera. .; Italian Language and Literature, Music and Performing Arts, Most Recent Listing .
