It was performed at the inauguration of the Carlo Felice Opera House in Genoa on April 7, 1828. Although the style of the opera was greatly influenced by Rossini's great predecessor, it is known as a fine work in which the characteristics of Bellini's music, which is full of melancholy and beautiful lyricism, can already be seen in many places. Against the backdrop of a unique stage set that resembles a gigantic celestial globe by Ugo De Ana, a leading figure in the Italian production world, Georgia-born Salome Zizia (Bianca) sings the difficult passages with an agile and beautiful voice, and Giorgio Misseri (Fernando) responds with a lyrical tenor voice with a stretchy and lyrical quality. Giorgio Misseri (Fernando) responds with a lyrical and elongated tenor singing. Master singer Donato Renzetti's tight tempo and the tight ensemble under his baton bring this performance to a high level of perfection. (C)RS
