About

This new release from the Opera Discovery label presents the world-premiere studio recording of Gaetano Luporini's Nora.

Originally planned in four acts, Nora was revised to three acts and was represented with success at the Teatro del Giglio in Lucca on 2 September 1908. The cast included the renowned Piero Schiavazzi and Amelia Karola - a tested couple of the verismo repertoire. Despite its great success and some performances in Livorno and Naples, the work did not spread widely. We remember one last performance in 1937 in San Remo, then oblivion.

Gaetano Luporini was born in Lucca on 12 December 1865 and studied there with Carlo Angeloni and at the Conservatory in Milan with Alfredo Catalani. He wrote a number of operas, including: Marcella (1889), I dispetti amorosi (1894), La collana di Pasqua (1896), Nora (1908), L'aquila e le colombe (1914), Chiaro di luna (1925), Amore e morte (composed in 1922 but performed only in 1965) and Jack Broder (1934, incomplete).
