Giuseppe Persiani

Born: 11th September 1799, Recanati, Italy

Died: 13th August 1869, Paris

Nationality: Italian

Giuseppe Persiani was an Italian opera composer.

Persiani was born in Recanati. He wrote his first opera - one of 11 - in 1826 but, after his marriage to the soprano Fanny Tacchinardi Persiani, who was to become a significant singer in her time, he devoted much of his efforts to supporting her career. He worked in a variety of opera genres including opera buffa and wrote an oratorio named Abigaille and featuring the same character as in the popular Verdi opera, Nabucco. He was noted for his ability to effectively combine music and drama as well as florid decoration.
