To mark the 10th anniversary of Hans Werner Henze’s death, the musician and philologist Andrea Zepponi looks back at the founding year of the Cantiere Internazionale d’Arte Montepulciano.
A significant part of the book is devoted to the Opera da Piazza Don Chisciotte della Mancia by Hans Werner Henze and his librettist Giuseppe di Leva, which completes the sketch-like work originally composed by Giovanni Paisiello.
The book features the first-ever publication of the opera’s complete libretto.
