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.
