Composed in 1818 on commission from an unknown individual in Lisbon, Adina was left to languish some years until its premiere in 1826, with a single performance in that city remaining virtually the only one on record until the opera's revival in 1963. The present vocal score is based on the critical edition of the orchestral full score prepared by Fabrizio Della Seta and published by the Fondazione Rossini of Pesaro in collaboration with Casa Ricordi. This Edition reconstructs for the first time the structure of the autograph score, which reflects the collective contributions of at least five different hands: having composed only four entirely new numbers and repurposed another three from Sigismondo, Rossini relied upon collaborators and copyists for the remainder of the music. Della Seta's detailed examination of this fundamental document (housed at the Fondazione Rossini) together with an informed assessment of the secondary sources, including a complete manuscript copy (housed at the British Library in London), various manuscript vocal parts with Rossini's autograph interventions (housed in the Royal Conservatory of Brussels), and the first edition of the vocal score published by Ricordi between 1855 and 1859, additionally reveals how the libretto printed in Lisbon for that single historic performance in 1826 differed substantially from the narrative disposition of the autograph score, with ample cuts and modifications (among those the suppression of the Aria Alì and the addition of a Coro). While neither attributable to Rossini himself nor pertaining to his original conceptual design of the opera, this Coro, the music of which survives in the first vocal score, is included as an Appendix to the edition.

Nino Rota (1911-1979) war ein italienischer Komponist, der hauptsächlich Filmmusik schrieb. Zu seinen ungefähr 150 Filmmusiken zählen die Soundtracks für Der Pate I und II und zahlreiche weitere Filme von berühmten Regisseuren, wie Federico Fellini, Luigi Visconti und Francis Ford Coppola. Sein Landsmann Lorenzo Bocci ehrt ihn nun mit diesem Medley. Les musiques de Nino Rota ont marqué l’histoire du cinéma. Ses thèmes mythiques sont associés des scènes inoubliables de films de grands réalisateurs comme Fellini, Visconti ou Coppola (avec Le Parrain I et Le Parrain II pour lequel il reçut un Oscar en 1974). Ce medley signé Lorenzo Bocci rassemble quatre des partitions les plus célèbres du maître italien : Bevete piú latte (Boccace 70), Amarcord, La dolce vota et La Passarella (8 ½).Nino Rota è il compositore di alcune delle colonne sonore più famose mai scritte, sia per il grande cinema italiano (indimenticabili le collaborazioni con Federico Fellini) sia per Hollywood (basti pensare alla colonna sonora de Il Padrino, vincitrice del meritatissimo oscar). Il medley include musiche tratte da Amarcord, 8½, La Dolce Vita e Boccaccio ’70.

Scar let Letters was composed in 1984 on commission of the pianist and harpsichordist Franzpeter Goebels (1920-1988) on the occasion of the 300th birth day of Domenico Scarlatti. The original working title 'Lettere scarlattine' is a concealed homage to the Italian composer. The compositional material is limited to the tones D, E, C, Es (= S, spoken 'Es' = E flat in German notation) and A, derived from the musical letters of Domenico Scarlatti's name, and the tones B (= B flat in German nota tion) and H (= B natural), the initials of my name. With 7 tones and 7 parts, this music is a sort of story about my imaginary encounter with the composer Domenico Scarlatti who was then one of my favourite composers. Sometimes I also used compositional means which I discovered in the sonatas of Scarlatti, such as quick 6/8 figures, afterbeat octaves and repetitions of short motifs. I tried to translatethe clarity, brightness and cheerfulness, the astounding modulations and the pianistic brilliance of his music into my compositional language.Barbara HellerThe piece was recorded on CD by the American pianist Deborah Richards (WERGO 6610-02). First performance: 31. October 1987 International Festival of Women Composers, Unna; Rosario Marciano, piano.
