	LA GATTA CENERENTOLA - HISTORY AND ORIGINS
		In an alternative Neapolitan variant Cenerentola appears as a fine-feathered hen belonging to a washerwoman, and each night sheds her feathers to go to the ball with the prince.
		In this context Cenerentola becomes the typical female figure as conceived in patriarchy - she is the "virgin", the negative victory of patriarchy over matriarchy.
		Furthermore, the scene of Cenerentola's dancing with the king is equivalent to the encounter with Saint Paul in the tarantella exorcism.

		E La nostra Cenerentola, dove il personaggio principale della fiaba sta in carrozzina, in un tentativo di rivisitazione del celebre testo che si rivolge soprattutto agli studenti delle scuole elementari e medie, allo scopo di far riflettere sulle problematiche delle persone disabili.

		Dopo aver letto la fiaba, i bambini e i ragazzi potranno provare a rispondere ad alcune domande-traccia, che vengono loro proposte nell'opuscolo, e a "rilanciare" a loro volta con delle soluzioni, anche fantasiose.

	La Cenerentola - Note al libretto
		La precisione con cui la canzone di Cenerentola dipinge la rivalità delle tre sorelle e un improbabile suo trionfo, come pure l'insistenza ossessiva con cui alla la ripete arrivano a far dubitare della sua sanità mentale.
		Solo recentemente, con la pubblicazione dell'edizione critica ed in tempi di moda filologica, è diventato obbligatorio rappresentarere l'aria rossiniana: che è bellissima, ma anche di estrema difficoltà, e che rischia di naufragare se il basso non è un ottimo cantante.
		Anche la qualità dei versi è scarsa, denotando una stesura frettolosa, forse non definitiva: la ripetizione di un verso già utilizzato ("son lasciata in abbandono"), qualche verso ridicolo ("capitar potrà il merlotto") rendono l'aria una caduta rispetto al resto del libretto.

	La Cenerentola - Gioachino Rossini
		Jacopo Ferretti, Rossini's librettist for La Cenerentola (premiered in 1817), based his version on an earlier and long forgotten French opera from several years earlier (not to be confused with Massenet's Cendrillon of 1899).
		The essence of the story remains, with much of the magical fantasy deleted--no fairy godmother, no pumpkins turned to coaches, and, instead of the glass slipper, a more realistic matching bracelet for the prince to identify the mysterious beauty for whom he has fallen.
		Ganassi has triumphed in the role at Covent Garden and at La Scala, so her appearance in San Francisco was greatly anticipated.

	La Cenerentola - Background
		The famous fairy Tale Cendrillon, ou La petite pentoufle de verre from Charles Perrault's Les histoires ou Contes du temps passé (1697).
		Piccinni's work is often cited as a milestone in the development of opera buffa, and it was a source of inspiration for many other works: the latest of them (before Cenerentola) was Stefano Pavesi's Agatina, o La virtù premiata (Milan, 1814), on a libretto by Francesco Fiorini.
		The substantial differences from Perrault's fairy tale, as well as the popularity of Isouard's competing version of the same subject, led the French critics to be negatively disposed.

	Florez Reviews La Cenerentola, London, 2003
		Cinders polishes the modish radiator that replaces the fireplace; Alidoro, the stand-in fairy godmother, sprouts golden wings as befits the literal meaning of his name and, in the one concession to fantasy, the scenery parts to reveal a magical starry backdrop of midnight blue.
		Jacopo Ferretti, il librettista di Cenerentola, ha tramandato un resoconto probabilmente fantasioso della stesura dell'opera, scritta in due settimane, il cui soggetto sarebbe stato deciso dopo la mezzanotte della vigilia di Natale dell'anno 1816, la stessa notte in cui, accettando una scommessa del compositore, avrebbe steso il primo schizzo del libretto.
		Transferring the mise en scène to that of Fellini's La Dolce Vita, complete with blue Rolls-Royce instead of golden carriage, elaborate costumes and sets are asked to carry the full weight of this subtly tragicomic genre.

	Florez Reviews Cenerentola New York 2002
		But in "La Cenerentola," Rossini's version of the fairy tale, which returned to the Metropolitan Opera on Saturday night, Juan Diego Flórez, the 29-year-old Peruvian tenor, walked off with the show.
		"Cenerentola" is a comedy with a dark streak; it calls for more than the simple effervescence of brilliant singing.
		But on Saturday night, amid the buffoonery of Gioachino Rossini's "La Cenerentola," the Metropolitan Opera heard a new star: tenor Juan Diego Florez, who delivered a string of scintillating high notes worthy of the young Luciano Pavarotti.

		La Cenerentola makes virtuoso musical demands in the romantic lead roles of Angelina (Cinderella) and the Prince, and it calls for carefully controlled comic skills in the supporting cast, particularly the mean stepfather and stepsisters and the valet, Dandini, who masquerades as the Prince through most of the plot.
		The sisters are deftly portrayed by Angela Denning and Daphne Evangelistos.
		A special elegance associated with the Salzburg Festival is well-exemplified in all aspects of this Cenerentola, including Mauro Pagano's staging, Michael Hampe's directing, and Riccardo Chailly's conducting of the great Vienna Philharmonic.

		And the same city of Rome that had at first disapproved, during the last days of Carnival was drunk with it and from then on applauded it frenziedly.
