Rossini, having composed no fewer than forty operas between the ages of nineteen and thirty-seven, wrote none in the next forty years. However, these "quiet" years were not barren of music. His various contributions to the catalog of sacred music notwithstanding, the maestro wrote two of the most ambitious, most delightful and most inspiring anthologies: "Soirees musicales" and "Peches de vieillesse". Elegant, witty, charming and often delicately ironic, these songs for various voices are ...

Rossini is often considered to be, above all, a secular composer, and, to be honest, some of his holy masses are, well, not exactly "holy"; the most obvious example are the two masses I posted several months ago: "Messa di Gloria" and "Messa di Milano" which, if it were not for the text and some genuinely spiritual music, could pass off as cantatas or even operatic material. This motion is contrasted, however, by a number of pieces that, if not exactly on par with more well-established ...

Rossini, heeding to the customs of the time, often wrote insertion arias for his own operas to pleases specific productions of his operas or even his favorite singers (as the already posted variant of Lindoro's (of "L'italiana" fame) second aria and an additional aria for Emma from "Zelmira" prove) but would also provide singers with new pieces for revivals of other composers' works. In this particular case, we have an opportunity to examine an insertion aria written for "I pretendenti ...

This little piece by Chopin uses a very famous theme as its' basis - that of the stretta for Angelina's final rondo - and elaborates it in a most pleasing and endearing manner. The four variations are unusually framed with the theme itself which returns in unvaried form at the end of the work, as if to suggest to the listener to return to the roots of the music. The variations themselves include a particularly moving obligatory minor setting of the main theme that forms the centerpiece of ...

"Demetrio e Polibio" represents an unusual case in all respects. Rossini composed it for an artists' family: Domenico Mombelli (composer and tenor); Vincenzina Vigano-Mombelli (his wife and sister of the celebrated choreographer, Salvatore Vigano), authoress of the booklet; and two daughters Ester and Anna (soprano and contralto, respectively). Ludovico Olivieri, butler and cook of the household, was covering the bass parts. Composed in 1806, the score remained unpublished, until Rossini ...
