Melisio Morales

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Melisio Morales (or Melesio Morales) (born Mexico City, December 4, 1838 - died Mexico City, May 12, 1908) was a Mexican composer.

Morales studied music in Mexico City, and two of his operas, written in Italian, were performed there. He lived in Europe from 1865-1868, and his success in Florence with the opera Ildegonda in 1866 made him a star in his native country. He composed, conducted, and taught in Mexico City until his death. His works include ten operas, two cantatas, and orchestral and choral works.
