Crispino e la comare Ricci

If you ask operagoers how many Italian comedies they can think of between Don Pasquale (1843) and Falstaff (1893), most would have to answer “none.” Did one of Italy’s most beloved traditions simply disappear for a full half-century? 

Of course it didn’t; the comic theaters were busy and full of successes. The problem is simply that none of the new composers established a long enough hold on the public to be remembered today. Only Verdi did that, in those years, and Verdi stayed away from opera buffa until the very end.

Quite a few of the others were very good, however, and their best pieces combine the sparkle inherited from Rossini and Donizetti with the intriguing new harmonies and orchestral colors of the later Romantics. 

Two of the best were the Ricci brothers from Naples, Luigi (1805-1859) and Federico (1809-1877). Between them they produced 49 operas, comic and serious alike. Mostly they worked separately, but on four occasions they helped each other out to fill a commission. One of those was Crispino e la Comare, their biggest “hit” among many. 

The libretto was by Francesco Maria Piave, author of La Traviata, Rigoletto, La Forza del Destino and so many others for Verdi.
