Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791) was the son of a Salzburg court musician who exposed him as a musical prodigy throughout Europe. His achievements in opera, in terms of beauty, vocal challenge, and dramatic insight, remain unsurpassed. The librettist Lorenzo Da Ponte (1749-1838), who led an adventurous life between Venice and Vienna, also collaborated with Mozart on Don Giovanni and Così fan tutte. He later emigrated to America, where he became the first professor of Italian at Columbia College in New York (now University).

The Ventidio Basso Theater is the communal theater, concert hall, and opera house, located on via del Trivio, in front main cloister of the church of San Francesco, near piazza del Popolo, in the city of Ascoli Piceno region of Marche, Italy. The exterior was erected in neoclassical-style, with grand interiors.

Ascoli Piceno had a communal theater since 1579, located at the site of the palazzo Anzianale.

The theater is named by Ventidio Basso, local made prisoner during the Social Wars of the Roman Republic. He became a military and political leader for Julius Caesar and Marc Antony. Ventidio has honored with a triumph for a victory against the Parthians in 38-39 B.C.

The Verdi Theater is the main theatrical space in Pisa. It is one of the most beautiful traditional theaters in Italy and one of the most successful examples of 19th-century theatre architecture. The Verdi Theatre in Pisa, formerly the Regio Teatro Nuovo, was inaugurated on the evening of November 12, 1867, with Gioachino Rossini’s Guglielmo Tell. The stage is one of the largest in Italy: it measures 26 meters deep and 32 meters wide and represents a sort of important “square” on which it was possible to create sets for Aida, Boito’s Nerone and others. In addition, inside there is a ridotto, named in 2006 to the great baritone Titta Ruffo, with a valuable fresco on the vault, Triumph of Love by Annibale Gatti, the same author of the canvas of the theater, depicting Goldoni reading to the colony Alfea.
