Maria di Brabante by the prolific Mantuan composer Achille Graffigna was first performed in Trieste in 1852; its plot is based on the life of the eponymous 13th/14th-century queen of France, the wife of Philip III. Graffigna was a pupil of Alessandro Rolla in Milan and was director of the episcopal chapel at Cagliari from 1834-36. His first opera to be staged was Un lampo d'infedeltà, which premièred at the Teatro Sociale, Lodi, in the autumn of 1836. His second opera, Ildegonda e Riccardo, premièred at La Scala in 1841. His version of Il Barbiere di Siviglia, first staged at the Teatro Communale in Padua in 1879, was intended as a tribute to Rossini, and was written with the older composer's permission. From 1875 Graffigna taught singing in Padua; his final staged work was an operetta, Il borgomastro, put on at Rome's Teatro Quirino in October 1892.
