The Italian melodrama was unequivocally marked by a simply exceptional composer: he is Gioacchino Rossini, already famous at twenty and the greatest user of the crescendo technique, then called precisely Rossini, to engage and excite the public. Born in Pesaro in February 1792 and raised in a simple and humble family, he showed how we will see a talented prevoce.

Not surprisingly, the artist was nicknamed the “Swan of Pesaro”. His mother, Anna Guidarini, was a decent singer, while his father, Giuseppe Rossini, was a trumpeter and a fervent supporter of the French Revolution. These political ideas often led the family to move from one city to another, forcing little Joachim to spend his childhood years or with his grandparents, or traveling.
