Franco Vittadini (April 9, 1884 Pavia – November 30, 1948 Pavia) was an Italian composer and conductor. As a composer he is mostly known for his operas and sacred music. Born in Pavia, he began his musical studies in 1903 at the Milan Conservatory, but left prematurely because of a disagreement with the director, Giuseppe Gallignani. For a short period he was maestro di cappella and organist in Varese, thereafter spending the rest of his life in Pavia where he was the director of the Istituto Musicale from 1924 until his death. As a stage composer, Vittadini found his greatest success with the opera ''Anima allegra'' (1918 - 1919), performed abroad as well as in Italy. His ballet ''Vecchia Milano'' (1928) was also very successful. Vittadini considered his opera ''Caracciolo'' (1938) to be his finest work, but his opera ''Fiammetta e l'avaro'' (1942 - 1951) was more successful at winning audiences. Vittadini received attention outside the theater for his religious works. He wrote numerous masses and motets in a style very similar to that of Lorenzo Perosi. His oratorio ''L'agonia del Redentore'' (1933) is considered to be one of his finer works, and his religious drama ''Nazareth'' (1925) forms a bridge between his achievements within sacred compositions and dramatic works. ==Operas== *''Il mare di Tiberiade'' (1914) *''Anima Allegra'' (1918–19) *''Nazareth'' (1925) *''La Sagredo'' (1930) *''Il natale di Gesù'' (1933) *''Caracciolo'' (1938) *''Fiammetta e l'avaro'' (1942) 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「Franco Vittadini」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
