M. Charles Malherbe, librarian of the Paris Opera, has, it is stated, made a strange discovery regarding Donizetti’s copyrights in France. He met in Italy some time ago the grandnephews of the composer, Gaetano and Joseph Donizetti. In conversation he happened to say that he supposed the performances of their grand-uncle’s operas in France brought in a fair sum to his heirs. Source : query.nytimes.com |
