The collection of pieces for guitar, '' Le Rossiniane ''op. 119-124, by
Mauro Giuliani (1781 Barletta - 1829 Naples) are an expression of the
so-called Rossini-Fever of his day. Giuliani probably composed these
pieces during a stay in Rome in 1820-23, when Gioacchino Rossini was
also there, although we don't know if they ever met each other. '' Le
Rossiniane ''combines Rossini's melodic ingenuity with Giulianis
virtuoso guitar style, a surefire combination in the 19th c.

The musical example presents an excerpt from op. 119, a transcription of
the Cavatina ''Languir per una bella'' from Rossini's ''L'Italiana in
Algeri''. (E. Stadler)
