La nave
''La nave'' is an opera in a Prologue and three “Episodes” by Italian composer Italo Montemezzi. Its Italian language libretto was adapted by Tito Ricordi from Gabriele d'Annunzio's 1908 play of the same name.
==First performance==
The opera premiered at La Scala in Milan on November 3, 1918, conducted by Tullio Serafin. ''La nave'' is a work which contains strongly patriotic and imperialistic themes, and fortune seemed to smile on its first performance when, after the conclusions of the first and second episodes, the performance was interrupted by announcements that Italian troops had entered Trento and Trieste respectively, thus signaling a successful end to Italy’s involvement in World War I.〔David Chandler (ed.), ''Essays on the Montemezzi-D’Annunzio “Nave”'' (Norwich: Durrant Publishing, 2012), 56.〕 A myth later developed that ''La Nave'' had been a great popular and critical success in 1918. The source of this error appears to be a statement Serafin made in ''Opera News'' in 1953: "''La nave'' was received as well as – perhaps better than – (great hit ) ''L’Amore'' (Tre Re'' ). … it was received with warm enthusiasm by the critics of all the Milan papers …."〔Tullio Serafin, "Italo Montemezzi – an appreciation," ''Opera News'' 19 January 1953, p. 31.〕 In fact, Serafin was misremembering, and none of the reviews was particularly enthusiastic. The critics praised Montemezzi’s orchestral and choral writing, but criticised the opera for being insufficiently tuneful, too Germanic in style, and based on an unsuitable source.〔Chandler, ''Essays on the Montemezzi-D’Annunzio “Nave.”'' This includes (in English translation) the 1918 reviews from the ''Corriere della Sera'', ''Il Secolo'', ''Il Popolo d’Italia'', ''La Perseveranza'', ''L’Illustrazione Italiana'', ''Corriere di Milano'' and ''Rivista d’Italia'', as well as an extended extract from the review in ''La Nazione''.〕 The most positive review, which appeared in the ''Corriere della Sera'' (attributed to Renato Simoni by David Chandler), described the opera as a "sincere success" with the public, but also noted that the audience response had been "only occasionally truly enthusiastic."〔Chandler, ''Essays'', 72.〕
