"Nino" again resumed its course, and was played till the return of Madame Castellan rendered a change at last imperative, for the "rentree" of a prima donna, already popular with the subscribers. She appeared on the 28th of March, in "Linda di Chamouni," and with her now habitual success. The representation offered no novelty, beyond the debut of Mademoiselle Gaetanina Brambilla, a pleasant young contralto, in the part of Pierotto. Though bearing the same name, she was no relation, it was stated, of the more celebrated Marietta Brambula; nor, although in many respects a clever and agreeable singer, did she threaten to rival her fame. Later, however, she made her way in Italy, and was esteemed an excellent Azucena. |
