La Vestale is an opera by Gaspare Spontini.
La Vestale is a famous opera in historical terms but is only very infrequently performed.
Two of its arias, "Tu che invoco" and "O Nume tutela", are better known than the work as a whole.

He plans to abduct her from the temple, where she must watch over the sacred flame, and while he escapes blame for profaning the temple, she is condemned for his intrusion and for allowing the sacred flame to go out.
This is taken as a sign of divine intervention on her behalf, and she and Licinius, whose attempts to exonerate her have failed, are re-united.
La Vestale (The Vestal Virgin) is among the most enduringly successful of Spontini's 24 operas.

 Gaspare Spontini - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Written with the encouragement of Empress Joséphine, its premiere at the Paris Opera established Spontini as one of the greatest Italian composers of his age.
Perhaps the most famous modern production was the revival of La Vestale with Maria Callas at La Scala at the opening of the 1954 season, to mark the 180th anniversary of the composer's birth.
In 1969, conductor Fernando Previtali revived the opera, with soprano Leyla Gencer and bass-baritone Renato Bruson.

Yes, yes, of course La Cieca knows that "foot and mouth" is an infectious disease of domesticated animals.
La Cieca leaves it to her cher public to debate whatever ideas might be teased from this morass of weak passive voice; she'll get the ball rolling by asking, "What exactly is a 'proto-Jew' and what qualities of the character of Beckmesser would tend to make him "seem" proto-Jewish?"
The diva sings the title role in Spontini's La Vestale in a performance from Teatro Massino di Palermo, December 4, 1969.

 [No title]
And that's exactly what he decided to do in La vestale, composing an opera with only three arias, and only one cabaletta--none of these being for any of the principals.
La vestale is also the fourth of these reform operas to be available on commercial CD, following Il Giuramento (1837), Elena da Feltre (1839), and Il Bravo (also 1839).
The total of 150 productions racked up by La vestale is really quite amazing, especially when you realize that neither Emilia (the equivalent of Giunia in Spontini’s work), nor Decio (the equivalent of Licinio) has an aria.

Among these were Gluck's "Iphigenie en Tauride," Cherubini's "Medea" (possibly her signature role) and Spontini's "La Vestale," an opera with a plot similar to "Norma" but with more thoughtfully dramatic and less coloratura-bel canto music in it.
In the case of "La Vestale," however, the Muti recording is a uniform disaster: limp, passionless singing from voices ill-suited for their roles, set to equally dull and uninteresting conducting.
"Vestale" was one of Callas' La Scala triumphs, and it provided her with the vehicle that opened the 1954-55 season at La Scala.

He went to Paris in 1803, won a prize from Napoleon for La Vestale (1807), and became court composer under Louis XVIII.
In 1819 he was a leading musician at the court of Frederick William III of Prussia.
Besides La Vestale, on which he worked for three years, Spontini had great successes with Fernand Cortez (1809), Olympie (1819, revised several times), and Nurmahal (1822).

Ladislav Elgr as Licinio, Andrea Patucelli as Metello Pio, Davide Damiani as Publio, Dante Alcalá as Decio, Agata Bienkowska as Ginna, Doriana Milazzo as Emilia, Danna Glaser as La Grand Vestale.
Licinio, by the way, is a version of Sophocles' Creon, the intractable Theban king who condemns his own son's fiancee, Antigone, to be buried alive -- with the same fatal consequences as in La Vestale, in which Emilia is entombed and her lover dies violently.
And it was widely observed that the long box containing the sacred vestal flame looked exactly like one of those artificial sun-tanning machines that make you look as if you've just returned from the Riviera.

Elsewhere, her pitch was suspect and the vocal line was distorted by an incessant wavering.
The fact that both Hudson and Paul Nilon (as Cinna) hacked their way through the dialogue of their Scene I duet with unrelenting dullness made the effort of the listener an interminable one.
The entry of the Vestals did little to sublimate this stark sense of isolation.

 - Ponselle Prima Voce @ Soundbug
Her Gioconda was as legendary as her Giulia (Vestale), repertoire only to be sung by Callas to the same perfection.
When I read that Maria Callas credited Rosa Ponselle as her vocal idol and only inspiration, the first thought I had was that if a soprano as great as Callas said this, is because it should be true.
When I bought this CD I proved the affirmation was correct: you only have to hear Rosa Ponselle's voice and verify that she is one the best sopranos of the century, and why her voice was the inspiration of many Callas's roles, including Norma, La Gioconda and La vestale.

One is that Italian opera somehow made an effortless jump from Rossini's last opera in 1829 to Verdi's first success in 1842.
Saverio Mercadante's La vestale (1840), this year's runaway winner at Wexford, shows it wasn't that easy.
Sensing that the florid early 19th-century style had outlived its usefulness, Mercadante tried to redefine the rules: simpler singing lines, no cabalettas, a narrower tessitura.

 La Vestale @ Coliseum, London : opera review
The intention is that the audience should engage with the drama with the mind, with reason, rather than emotionally.
No tiny hand frozen here; instead a hardly sullied and brave vestal embraces death, a hero with a passion-free certificate offers to substitute himself for her, and an inflexible high priest demands the ultimate sacrifice - exactly what each character should be and do according to classical types.
This opera, rather like its vestal successor Norma, cries out for a traditional, classical rendition.
