Recorded by Random Opera Company. An exclusive first performance of Elena’s aria “Perchè mai”, from Marianna Bottini's unpublished opera "Elena e Gerardo"

Visit our website at https://randomopera.co.uk/elena-e-ger... to find out how you can support our important project to bring this opera to the stage.

Elena e Gerardo is the only opera by Marianna Bottini - arguably 19th Century Italy's greatest female composer - and it has never been performed. Random Opera is excited to be bringing the WORLD PREMIERE of this work to Rugby in 2023.

Born in 1802, Bottini was a contemporary of Rossini, and was admitted to the Academy of Music in Bologna as an “Honorary Master Composer” at the age of just 18. Bottini composed Elena e Gerardo in 1822 at the age of 20. She subsequently stopped composing at the age of 21, when she married.

Elena e Gerardo is based on an original story by Matteo Bandello (who later wrote the original story of Romeo & Juliet that formed the basis of Shakespeare's play). The links with Romeo &amp; Juliet are clear, with the two noble families &amp; a secret marriage being central to both.

General Director Richard Tegid Jones discovered that the completed score was in the archives at the Institute Boccherini in Lucca, and set about plans to stage the work for the first time. We will be bringing the world premiere to the Temple Speech Room in Rugby in 2023, accompanied by a 26-piece chamber orchestra.

Elena e Gerardo Bottini

Random Opera Company are delighted to present the historic world premiere of the 1822 opera Elena e Gerardo by Marianna Bottini.

Marianna Bottini was a celebrated composer from a young age, becoming an "Honorary Master Composer" at the age of 18. She was a contemporary of Rossini, and this work - her only opera - is a baroque bel canto opera in a similar vein. Bottini composed this opera at the age of 20, but after her marriage in 1823 the work lay untouched for two centuries. Random Opera Company has worked with experts to prepare the score for this world premiere performance.
