Lucrezia Borgia to a libretto by Felice Romani after the play by Victor Hugo was first performed in Milan at La Scala on 26 December 1833.<br /> <br /> "One of the major successes of Donizetti's career Lucrezia Borgia reflects Donizetti's interest in powerful melodramatic tragedy. He was attracted to the subject by the scene in Hugo's play in which the six coffins of Lucrezia's victims were suddenly revealed. The Milanese censors refused to allow the inclusion of this episode in the opera; indeed the subject was at first regarded as so suspect that three years elapsed between the successful opening run at La Scala. and its second production. For a time the work was given under a number of aliases; in one version the action was transferred to a non-Christian country. For its second production at La Scala in January 1840 Donizetti revised the final scene adding an arioso for the dying Gennaro and eliminating Lucrezia's final cabaletta as he thought it dramatically incongruous for a mother to sing a brilliant aria over a son whose death she has albeit unwittingly caused. From 1840 on Lucrezia Borgia became one of the central works of the repertory its vogue lasting until the end of the century." William Ashbrook in Grove Music Online. J. Meissonier ... E.

The original French version became a standard in Paris performed regularly at the Opéra until 1918. It is now widely regarded as one of Donzietti's best operas with considerable attention given to the fourth act. <br /> <br /> "In spite of its mixture of sources La favorite must rank among Donizetti's best works although it slips from its high standard in a few instances such as the merely efficient ballet music."

It is in fact a Romantic melodramma through and through and is so described in the original libretto. The score contains some finely wrought arias and moving ensembles."

Its performance history there began in 1848 when it received its première in Naples soon after Donizetti's death; the recent granting of a constitution there made the mounting of the banned work seem a political gesture as well as an artistic one. Throughout the 19th century it was put on periodically as a vehicle for such dramatic tenors as Tamberlik and Tamagno. It has had some notable revivals: at La Scala in 1940 with Gigli and Caniglia and in 1960 with Corelli and Callas; in 1977 at the S Carlo; and in Vienna in 1986 with Carreras. A Rome revival in 1988 followed a text that removed many years' editorial accretions. Les martyrs too has been revived notably in Venice in 1978." William Ashbrook in Grove Music Online.

Along with Bellini Donizetti epitomized the Italian Romantic spirit of the 1830s. If Bellini expressed Italian Romanticism in its most concentrated form Donizetti compensated by a greater versatility and resource and a stronger feeling for dramatic movement. He also had the benefit of a more thorough musical training under Mayr and Mattei and this contributed much to his superior fluency of technique and invention." TNG II online.
