Great Rossinian tenor, Andrea Nozzari (1776-1832), created several roles in operas by Rossini.
The soprano Giuditta Pasta (1798-1865) was a glory of the 1820s and 1830s, and it was for her that, for example, Bellini wrote La Sonnambula and Norma.
Stendhal’s admiration: in his Life of Rossini (1824), the writer evokes Andrea Nozzari and Mrs. Pasta eulogically.
