Musical

Following five years of extraordinary success with "La Sonnambula," "Norma and Beatrice di Tenda," "I Puritani," the last opera written by a young Bellini, who died at age 34, is the richest example of transition from the lyrical classicism to the passion of romanticism.

The first performances, in Paris, 1835, interpreted by the most beautiful voices of the time, became a legend.
