''Crispino e la comare'' (''The Cobbler and the Fairy'') is an opera written collaboratively by Luigi Ricci and Federico Ricci with an Italian libretto by Francesco Maria Piave. ==Performance history== The premiere took place on 28 February 1850 at the Teatro San Benedetto in Venice. The work was very popular during the 19th century, and was an especial favourite of touring Italian companies in the Americas, and in the Asia-Pacific region generally. It had its London premiere on 17 November 1857 at St James's Theatre, its Calcutta premiere in 1867 at the Calcutta Opera House〔Esmeralda Rocha, ''Opera in Calcutta 1833-1900''〕 and its Australian premiere on 11 August 1871 at the Princess's Theatre, Melbourne.〔Eric Irvin, ''Dictionary of the Australian Theatre 1788-1914''〕 While rarely performed in the 20th and 21st centuries, the Festival della Valle d'Itria in Martina Franca, Italy staged the work as part of its 39th festival in July/August 2013. Bass-baritone Domenico Colaianni sang Crispino, while the role of Annetta was taken by Stefania Bonfadelli.〔Dino Foresio, "Italy: Martina Franca", in ''Opera'' (London), December 2013, pp. 1575—1576〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Crispino e la comare」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
