Nerone (Mascagni)

Nerone (Nero) is an opera in three acts by Pietro Mascagni from a libretto by Giovanni Targioni-Tozzetti, based on the play Nerone by Pietro Cossa. Most of Mascagni's music was drawn from a failed project Vistilia (from 1907) - the music made to 'fit' a wholly unconnected libretto.

It received its first performance on 16 January 1935 at La Scala, Milan which was conducted by Mascagni himself.

gollark: osmarks.tk now has a yggdrasil subdomain with its AAAA record pointed at my yggdrasil IP, so all zero people using that can now connect to a (HTTP-only, missing many backend services) osmarks.tk!
