From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Composer of the Month for January is Pasquale Anfossi...

We lack articles on the singers who created the main roles in his opera L'avaro (1775). All were very well-known in their day, particularly Domenico Poggi who created the role of Orgasmo; Clementina Baglioni Poggi who created the role of Laurina; and Stefano Mandini who created the role of Stefanello.

The article on his opera La vera costanza is a stub needing expansion. We also lack an article on Anfossi's La maga Circe (1788), less well-known but particularly admired by Goethe.
