About the opera La Battaglia di Legnano
La battaglia di Legnano (The Battle of Legnano) is an opera in four acts, with music by Giuseppe Verdi to an Italian-language libretto by Salvadore Cammarano. It was based on the play La Bataille de Toulouse by Joseph Méry. The opera received its first performance on 27 January 1849, at the Teatro Argentina, Rome. While the premiere was successful, the opera failed in its 1850 production in Genoa.
After initial performances around Italy the opera fell foul of the Austrian censors, but it was revived in Milan as L'assedio di Haarlem (The siege of Haarlem); in Parma 1869 it was re-titled La disfatta degli Austriaci (The defeat of the Austrians).
