Description:
The life and works of Vincenzo Bellini (Catania, 1801 - Puteaux, 1835) are
divided between an initial Italian phase and the Parisian consecration which
climaxes with the premiere of I Puritani at the Théâtre Italien. We extend an
invitation to participate to all of our musicologist colleagues interested by
matters pertaining to the composer's Parisian sojourn, ultimate musical creations
and death, but also to relationships with the musical milieu, influences of French
opera or the "silence" of Italian musicians in France. The studies
may, for instance, concern the relationship of Bellini's work with France
(literary sources for the librettos, the two versions of I Puritani, the
non-theatrical production), his reception on operatic stages and in the press,
musical settings of Bellini themes and literary texts. In a more general way the contributions may further highlight the relationships among Sicilians and the French in the first half of the 19th century.
The working languages will be French, English and Italian.
