In 19th-century Italian opera, la solita forma (literally conventional form or multipartite form or double aria) is the formal design of scenes found during the bel canto era of Rossini, Bellini, Donizetti up to the late operas of Verdi. The English phrase—"multipartite form"—is most often used by American musicologist Philip Gossett, beginning with a 1974 essay, where referring to a general framework of melodramatic scene types, especially duets. Each scene gradually progresses from an opening static lyric moment to a finale through several standard musical tempos and set pieces, gradually adding characters and adding or unraveling complexity in the plot.

  • In 19th-century Italian opera, la solita forma (literally conventional form or multipartite form or double aria) is the formal design of scenes found during the bel canto era of Rossini, Bellini, Donizetti up to the late operas of Verdi. The English phrase—"multipartite form"—is most often used by American musicologist Philip Gossett, beginning with a 1974 essay, where referring to a general framework of melodramatic scene types, especially duets. Each scene gradually progresses from an opening static lyric moment to a finale through several standard musical tempos and set pieces, gradually adding characters and adding or unraveling complexity in the plot. Because composers wrote operas in short spans of time, the standardized form of scenes ensured a time-tested dramatic and musical structure. The term itself comes from a work of criticism by Abramo Basevi (en)
  • Solita forma è una locuzione coniata nel 1859 dal musicologo e compositore Abramo Basevi (ma già anticipata nel contenuto da nel 1841) e rimessa in circolo come definizione da per descrivere la struttura (forma) standard (e dunque solita) del duetto operistico negli anni dell'Ottocento. La definizione si intende estesa anche all'aria solistica, ai concertati e ai finali. Il musicologo americano Philip Gossett ha spesso usato la definizione di doppia aria o forma multipartita per il tipo di struttura utilizzato, ovvero un'aria divisa da un e intervallata da pertichini per conferire dinamicità.
