Giuseppe Verdi.
Verdi's middle period operas epitomize the soul of not only Verdi, but of Italian Opera. These three operas "set the stage" for what Opera will become as well. They are: Rigoletto Il Trovatore La Traviata
Verdi composed not for the the Italian elite, but for a mass public who's main entertainment was opera.
Verdi's last two operas were Otello and Falstaff, based on Shakespeare's Othello and The Merry Wives of Windsor. Verdi completed Otello in 1887 at the age of 73, and Falstaff in 1893 at the age of 79.
Most of Giuseppe Verdi's operas were published by Casa Ricordi, a prominent music publishing company based in Milan, Italy. Casa Ricordi played a significant role in promoting Verdi's works and supporting his career as a composer.
