Lucrezia Borgia Tickets

Lucrezia Borgia (1833) is an opera in bel canto style by Gaetano Donizetti comprising a prologue and two acts. The libretto, by Felice Romani, stems from Victor Hugo´s tragedy Lucrèce Borgia, which had been premiered in Paris that same year (1833). This was the great French Romantic writer´s first contribution to Italian opera. Other plays of his later gave rise to such noteworthy operas as Verdi´s Ernani (1844) and Rigoletto (1851).
