In 1735, when Venetian Antonio Lucio Vivaldi asked fellow Venetian Carlo Goldoni to fit aria texts into an existing libretto, Goldoni said he had to ‘accommodate or cook up the drama’ to the composer’s taste, ‘for better or worse’ --"accomodare o impasticciare il Dramma a suo gusto, per mettervi bene o male le … I am Comedy/she who on the stage/gives praise to virtue, and reprimands the errors/showing in different guises/”Le donne, i cavalier, l’arme e gli amori” [Note also the citation from Ariosto]/she by whom often/seeing of oneself the shameful example/the villain detests his vice, and becomes righteous. ibid., Act I Finale.

While opening his texts to new dramatic possibilities in the field of music, Goldoni was also making strides as a comic playwright. D: He is innocent, I assure you. In La bottega da caffè and L’amante cabala, Stiffoni sees the “stato embrionale del dramma giocoso.”45 These works are expanded from the original two acts and are articulated in three. B: Dimwit, you’ve tricked me. 37 ibid. Goldoni’s first task is to adjust an aria, and, vexed and stricken in his honor for being treated as a ‘novice’ by a composer of ‘scarce’ counterpoint, he demands pen and paper and a chair and begins to write there in the room with Vivaldi. He’ll be right there! Buleghin is a gondolier with a penchant for gambling, a vice explored in more than one of Goldoni’s comedies, most famously in La Bottega del Caffè (The Coffee Shop, 1750).

The precocious son of a physician, Goldoni read comedies from his father’s library when young and ran away from school at Rimini in 1721 with a company of strolling players. La pelarina (we revert to this title as the original La cantatrice, following Goldoni’s account, no longer exists) is an exemplary intermezzo.

Stiffoni has attributed the success of these works precisely to their distinct characterizations, that is to a type of “gioco scenico, appoggiato non solo ← 45 | 46 → alla battuta comica ma anche sulla definizione dei singoli personaggi, nella maggior parte dei casi disegnati in maniera assai efficace.”44. Volendo io esprimere un sentimento, non ho mai cercato il termine più scelto, più elegante, o sublime; ma il più vero ed il più esprimente. Through the image of gentlemen with perfected hair, powdered complexions, and empty promises, Goldoni returns to a deep-rooted issue confronted nearly ubiquitously in his theatre: appearance and reality ever more at odds. Divorzio, divorzio. Indeed, the most memorable episodes of Goldoni’s autobiography are always narrated in a theatrical style of prose. In sum, Music and Comedy personified represent not only two different artistic spheres, but more subtly the interplay of comedy and tragedy (represented by Music’s ancient origins) within a single work. Tu degno non sei. In particular, it was during Goldoni’s span of collaboration with Medebach that he was able to write and produce the most important comedies that would launch his “reform.”. She underlines her connection to tragedy by evoking Metastasian theatre, “Ora per la virtù risorto è il zelo,/ Ed io sono virtù che vien dal cielo,” the new ‘zeal for virtue’ a clear reference to the Arcadian reform. far con esse i spasimati, Che struggeria in un dì più di Che dall’alto mio Soglio, Its allowance for improvisation, later to become a hindrance to the development of plot, in origin blossomed entirely from the wit and captivating personality of its first actors, who just as Ruzante were men of letters and authors in their own right.

The tragedy went through the roof. The criteria that animated his innovations, the essence of his later “reform,” was the same desire for realism, originality, and novelty that he could more freely pursue in his texts for music.

Peter Lang International Academic Publishers. That ‘other’ discreetly mentioned by Goldoni is Antonio Gori, comic author and lawyer who openly asserted his own authorship of the intermezzo when it was given at the Teatro Grimani di S. Samuele in 1734 (the year of La serva padrona) under the direction of Giuseppe Imer (1700–1758), with music (now lost) by Giacomo Maccari. This memory would stay with him, such that “nelle mie Commedie non mi sono scordato del mio Padovano, e di là ebbe origine quella collera con cui mi sono scagliato contro del gioco nella mia Commedia Il giocatore (The Gambler), nella Bottega del Caffè ed in altre, nelle quali ho avuto occasion di parlarne.”34 Aside from affording an amusing biographical anecdote, Goldoni’s personal experience evoked through his theatre reveals, firstly, a young author’s innate interest in representing events and issues of contemporary relevance notwithstanding the dictates of the predominating musical fashion which largely preferred other subjects, and most importantly, the implicit belief that comic theatre, however entertaining and lighthearted, is not without the ability to target and stigmatize social problems (“mi sono scagliato contro del gioco,” etc.). Appunto quello. Drusilla: My dear! qual pan di zucchero. From the newly uncovered papers of Carlo Gozzi, it has emerged that Sacchi, an admirer of Caldéron de la Barca, also liked to recite without a mask and in verse. mi mangio un cappone in un momento.

We may further imagine that, if from the position of prestige and maturity from which he is writing his recollections the first intermezzi appear in retrospect to be of little consequence, when Goldoni was first given the opportunity to compose these texts, they were to him anything but marginal.

Oibò. The dramma giocoso, as a genre, is precisely defined as ‘comic material…interwoven with tragic.’ And notwithstanding the fact that this first, however rushed, attempt draws its ‘tragic’ parts from an existing text, all of Goldoni’s subsequent- and entirely orginal- libretti confirm the novelty: comedy and tragedy in a new coexistence within the same work, even if- at this early stage- in parallel plot lines. MEL. By the time Goldoni was a young man, intermezzi appeared in virtually all of Venice’s thirteen theatres, with the exception of the more prestigious Teatro San Giovanni Grisostomo (today still working as the Teatro Malibran) which, to offer more lavish spectacle, housed ballets and opera seria exclusively. Thanks to the clear coexistence of buffo and serio, this work, while of simple design, is able to provide an ample spectrum of dramatic registers and a variety of scenarios, supplemented in their efficacy by the realism and fluidity of action that are a universal priority for Goldoni. Momolo, the protagonist, for the first time in the history of comic theatre, recites from a part entirely written out from beginning to end, while the actors around him continue to improvise in the traditional manner.

The texts written for the Teatro S. Samuele testify the absence of a unifying comic opera tradition: Aristide (1735) is a dramma eroia comico, La Fondazion de Venezia (The Founding of Venice, 1736) a divertimento per musica, Lugrezia romana in Costantinopoli (Lucretia of Roma in Constantinople, 1737) a dramma per musica, and finally, La Contessina ← 47 | 48 → (The Little Countess, 1743), commedia per musica.
