From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Emilia di Liverpool (Emilia of Liverpool) is a dramma semiseria, ("half-serious") dramatic opera, in two acts by Gaetano Donizetti. Giuseppe Ceccherini wrote the Italian libretto after the anonymous libretto for Vittorio Trento's Emilia di Laverpaut, itself based on Stefano Scatizzi's play of the same name. It premiered on July 28, 1824 at the Teatro Nuovo, Naples.
