Identifier: MS.6300

Scope and Contents

The opera was produced at Treviso in 1870, and later rewritten and published as ‘Adriana’ (Lago di Como, 1930). The score, in the handwriting of Ladislao Zavertal’s father, Vaclav Hugo Zavertal, then Director of the Istituto Musicale of Treviso, appears to have been undergoing revision, and many pages have been discarded and replaced by others.
