M ichael W illiam B alfe (Composer 1808-1870) Balfe was born in Dublin 15th May 1808 and died in England 20th October 1870. Despite the fact that nowadays ' The Bohemian Girl ' is the only one of his 28 Operas performed - though 'The Siege of Rochelle' 'The Rose of Castile' were performed in the early days of The Wexford Festival - he is really a much neglected as composer, singer and conductor. [I have a recording of The Rose of Castile performance and many of the other Operas performed at Wexford Festival.] He started his career in music very early. By the time he was seven he had composed and had publicly performed a Polacca which, according to Barret in his book, was extant at the time the book was published. He made his violin soloist debut at the age of eight in May 1816. He wrote the Ballad "Young Fanny" which with new words by T Haynes Baley was then called "The Lover's Mistake" before he was nine. This ballad was sung by Madam Vestris and many of the leading singers of that time. It was published later in "The Universal Songster " in 1826. In 1823 shortly after the death of his father he was taken to London where he got a post as violinist in The Drury Lane Theatre Orchestra - eventually becoming leading Violinist with the orchestra.

In Italy he wrote his first dramatic work, a ballet, La Perouse . At the close of 1827 he appeared as Figaro in Rossinis Barbire , at the Italian opera in Paris.

Trieste Mia Fascino e Mistero L'Opera Lirica a Trieste Index Michael William Balfe Per più di 150 anni la musica di Balfe, specialmente la sua opera "The Bohemian Girl", è stata eseguita con notevole successo nel mondo anglofono di America, Australia, Gran-Bretagna, Canada, Irlanda e Nuova Zelanda. Michael era figlio di William Balfe (1783-1823), un maestro della scuola di ballo, e di Mary Ryan. Egli era anche nipote dell'infame avvocato, librettista, autore di canzoni e spia Leonard MacNally (1752-1820), probabilmente un personaggio che la famiglia vorrebbe cancellare dalla memoria. Bambino prodigio, si esibì per la prima volta in pubblico con il violino durante un concerto alla Rotunda Concert Rooms di Dublino il 30 maggio 1817, all'età di nove anni. Altri concerti seguirono rapidamente, tutti con grande successo nel corso degli anni successivi. La prima composizione musicale del giovane artista "The Lover's Mistake" venne pubblicata nel 1822. Nel 1825, Balfe, interessato ad estendere i suoi studi, prima si reca a Parigi dove viene presentato al grande compositore Luigi Cherubini (1760-1842). Passa gli anni seguenti in Italia dove studia canto con Filippo Galli (1783-1853), cantante di Rossini, e prende lezioni di composizione a Roma da Ferdinando Paer (1771-1839). Successivamente a Milano studia armonia e contrappunto con Vincenzo Federici (1764-1827).
