In 1845 Franz
Liszt embarked on a
project to compose an
Italian opera based on
Lord Byron’s
tragedy, Sardanapalus
(1821). It was central to
his ambition to attain
status as a major
European composer, with
premieres variously
planned for Milan,
Vienna, Paris and London.
But he abandoned it half
way through, and the
music he completed has
lain silently for 170
years.
Liszt’s difficulty
in obtaining a libretto
meant that composition
only began in April 1850.
He completed virtually
all the music for Act 1
in an annotated
piano-vocal score of 111
pages, contained within
his N4 music
‘sketch
book’. The unnamed
librettist was an Italian
poet and political
prisoner, seemingly
living under house
arrest, and a close
acquaintance of Cristina
Belgiojoso. His libretto
survives as underlay in
the N4 sketchbook and has
been critically
reconstructed and
translated.
Sardanapalo is
Liszt’s only
mature opera. While he
consistently referred to
it in French, as
Sardanapale, the
published title of the
Italian opera would
almost certainly have
used the Italian name,
hence this forms the
title of the first
edition. There are three
solo roles and a chorus
of concubines. The
manuscript was previously
thought to be fragmentary
and partially illegible,
but it was finally
deciphered to
international acclaim in
March 2017.
Liszt’s score
offers a richly melodic
style, with elements from
Bellini and Verdi
alongside glimmers of
Wagner and the symphonic
poems ahead: a unique
mixture of Italianate
pastiche and mid-century
harmonic innovation. It
remains quintessentially
Lisztian. The opera sets
Byron’s tragedy
about war and peace in
ancient Assyria: the last
King, effeminate in his
tastes, is drawn to wine,
concubines and feasts
more than politics and
war: his subjects find
him dishonourable (a
‘man queen’)
and military rebels seek
to overthrow him, but are
pardoned, for the King
rejects the ‘deceit
of glory’ built on
others’ suffering:
this leads only to a
larger uprising, the
Euphrates floods its
banks, destroying the
castle’s main
defensive wall, and
defeat is inevitable: the
King sends his family
away and orders that he
be burned alive with his
lover, amid scents and
spices in a grand
inferno. As Byron put it:
‘not a mere pillar
formed of cloud and
flame, but a light to
lessen ages.’ For
his part, Liszt told a
friend that his finale
‘will even aim to
set fire to the entire
audience!’
This critical edition
includes a detailed study
on the genesis of
Liszt’s
Sardanapalo in English,
German, and Hungarian,
the libretto in the
original Italian as well
as in English, German,
and Hungarian
translation, several
facsimile pages of
Liszt’s
manuscript, and a
detailed Critical
Report.

Do
nizetti's Lucrezia Borgia
was premiered at Milan's
Teatro alla Scala on 26
December 1833 and is
considered one of the
composer's most important
and innovative operas of
the 1830s. Although,
because of censorship
issues, particularly in
the south of Italy, it
was initially slow to
become popular, by the
late 1830s it had become
one of the composer's
most popular operas, both
in Italy and abroad, and
remained an essential
part of the composer's
oeuvre until at least the
end of the nineteenth
century. Remarkable for
its daring subject matter
(with an unconventional,
forceful heroine), it is
also renowned for its
challenging mixture of
the comic and the tragic,
something very unusual at
the time and clearly an
important influence on
Giuseppe Verdi's middle
period masterpieces. The
present reduction for
voice and piano derives
from the critical edition
of the score, recently
published in this
catalog: is based on
Donizetti's autograph
manuscript (housed in the
Ricordi Archives in
Milan), on the libretto
for the premiere, on
several printed editions
of voice and piano, and
on numerous additional
scores of the period. It
presents for the first
time all the numerous
additions that the
composer made to the
score over the course of
ten years: a fascinating
record of his changing
music dramatic attitudes
during this period. There
is also a synthetic
historical reconstruction
of the genesis of the
opera and of the
description of the
Sources as well as a
selection of most
interest to singers of
Critical Commentary
Notes.
Rappresenta
ta per la prima volta al
Teatro alla Scala il 26
dicembre 1833, Lucrezia
Borgia e considerata una
fra le piu importanti e
innovative opere di
Donizetti. Sebbene le
resistenze della censura,
soprattutto nel sud
Italia, ne causarono
inizialmente una lenta
diffusione, dalla fine
degli anni '30
dell'Ottocento essa
divenne uno dei lavori
piu popolari e
significativi del
compositore e tale rimase
fino alla fine del XIX
secolo. Notevole per il
suo audace soggetto (con
un'eroina non
convenzionale e dalla
forte personalita) essa e
rinomata anche per
l'impegnativa commistione
di comico e tragico, un
tratto piuttosto inusuale
per l'epoca, che ebbe una
chiara influenza sui
capolavori verdiani di
meta secolo. La presente
riduzione per canto e
pianoforte e condotta
sull'edizione critica
della partitura, da poco
pubblicata in questo
stesso catalogo: si basa
sul manoscritto autografo
di Donizetti (conservato
presso l'Archivio Storico
Ricordi di Milano), sul
libretto della prima
rappresentazione, su
alcune riduzioni a stampa
per canto e pianoforte e
su varie altre fonti
dell'epoca. L'edizione
presenta per la prima
volta tutte le aggiunte
che il compositore
apporto alla partitura
nel corso di dieci anni,
costituendo
un'affascinante
testimonianza dei
mutevoli approcci di
Donizetti alla materia
drammatico musicale
durante questa fase della
sua carriera. Il volume
comprende una sintesi
della ricostruzione della
genesi storica dell'opera
e della descrizione delle
fonti e una selezione di
Note del Commento Critico
fra quelle piu funzionali
alle esigenze di cantanti
e pianisti
accompagnatori.
