Sigismondo

Sigismondo

"Sigismondo" is an operatic 'dramma' in two act by Gioacchino Rossini to an Italian libretto by Giuseppe Maria Foppa.

The opera was not a success and Rossini later re-used some its music in Elisabetta, regina d'Inghilterra.

Performance history

"Sigismondo" was first performed at the Teatro La Fenice, Venice, on 26 December, 1814. It was revived in Rovigo in 1992 (see recording details below).
