Giacomo Francesco Bussani

Giacomo Francesco Bussani was a Venetian librettist.

He wrote seven known librettos; 5 for Antonio Sartorio, and one each for Carlo Pallavicino and Pietro Agostini.[1] Among those he set for Sartorio was Giulio Cesare in Egitto, which was later adapted by Nicola Francesco Haym for Georg Friedrich Händel's Giulio Cesare.

Notes

  1. Giulio Cesare in Egitto - xi Antonio Sartorio, Craig A. Monson - 1991 - 322 "Giulio Cesare represents Sartorio's second collaboration with the rather obscure Venetian librettist, Giacomo Francesco Bussani. Although Bussani also provided a single libretto each for [Carlo ?] Pallavicino and Pietro Simone Agostini,"
