Filippo Marchetti
Filippo Marchetti (26 February 1831, Bolognola, Macerata – 18 January 1902, Rome) was an Italian opera composer. After studying in Naples, his first opera was "successfully premiered" in Turin in 1856. It has been noted that "it was one of the first Italian operas to show the influence of French grand opera, partly, no doubt in response to its French source".
