Gloria (opera)
''Gloria'' is a tragic opera in three acts by Francesco Cilea with an Italian libretto by Arturo Colautti. A variation on the Romeo and Juliet story and set in 14th century Siena, the libretto is based on Victorien Sardou's 1874 play ''La Haine'' (''Hatred''). The opera premiered on 15 April 1907 at La Scala conducted by Arturo Toscanini with Salomea Krusceniski in the title role. ''Gloria'' was a failure at its premiere when it was withdrawn after two performances and fared little better in the 1932 revised version, although there have been two late 20th century revivals. It proved to be Cilea's last staged opera. In the 43 years following the premiere of ''Gloria'' he worked on two or three further operas which were never performed and continued to compose chamber and orchestral music.
==Composition==
Like Cilea's earlier operas, ''L'arlesiana'' (1897) and ''Adriana Lecouvreur'' (1902), ''Gloria'' takes its title from its female protagonist and is based on a French play. This time, Arturo Colautti, who had also written the libretto for ''Adriana Lecouvreur'', based the libretto on Victorien Sardou's ''La Haine'' (Hatred), a tragic tale of two lovers caught up in the conflict between the Guelphs and Ghibellines in 14th century Siena.〔Montero (18 February 1908) p. 5〕 Cilea composed ''Gloria'' while staying in the Ligurian seaside town of Varazze, which was to become his home in later life.
