Ugo, re d'Italia (Hugo, King of Italy) is an unfinished opera by Gioachino Rossini that was abandoned when the composer and his wife, Isabella Colbran, were staying in London from December 1823 until July of the following year. It was intended that the music was to be set to an existing libretto, La figlia dell'aria by an unknown author.

  • Ugo, re d'Italia (Hugo, King of Italy) is an unfinished opera by Gioachino Rossini that was abandoned when the composer and his wife, Isabella Colbran, were staying in London from December 1823 until July of the following year. It was intended that the music was to be set to an existing libretto, La figlia dell'aria by an unknown author. Scholar Charles Osborne notes that "Rossini had been contracted to write it for performance in London", during the 1824 season although the London Morning Chronicle of 15 December notes that "he was to write two Operas during the season". No completed opera was ever forthcoming. In addition, the composer was engaged to oversee a season of eight of his operas, while Colbran was engaged to sing in Zelmira and Ricciardo e Zoraide. But when Rossini failed to produce even one opera for the season, due as much to the couple's very hectic social life as anything else, a new contract was drawn up with Benelli noting that the opera was intended to be "commenced and in part finished" by 1 January 1825. Leaving behind the "preliminary workings and a bond for £400 with Benelli's bankers" (as surety for its completion), Rossini and Colbran left England on 25 July 1824, never to return. (en)
