Goldoni became one of the first to give shape to the dramma giocoso per musica, an innovative, realistic, and enduring new genre with intimate connections to prose comedy that met with overwhelming international success, becoming the foundation for the works of future generations, including W.A. Mozart and his Italian librettist Lorenzo da Ponte. Perhaps because of his stature and influence as a comic playwright, Goldoni has rarely been considered as an innovator in the musical sphere. This study aims to shed new light on his primary role in the evolution of Classical opera, and on the legacy of his innovations in the European musical tradition.At the origins of Classical opera MusicOperaLibrettistsItalyVeniceMusic.Opera.Librettists.782.10268092Rista Pervinca1262121NjHacINjHaclBOOK9910476937303321At the origins of classical opera2948594UNINA
