# I Lombardi alla prima crociata opens at La Scala on 11 February 1843 as a completed early success

Date: 1843

## The fact

La Scala and Britannica date I Lombardi’s 11 February 1843 premiere. Librettist Solera and the house share the night. Later Risorgimento hymn myths are reception, not a separate act here.

It is one event.

## Context

Nabucco 1842 is neighbouring.

[Giuseppe Verdi](/people/giuseppe-verdi)’s documented role is bounded by other offices and collaborators named in the sources below. Sharing a field with them is not a reason to drop a documented act, and it is not a reason to assign later consequences done in the name after death.

Post-Nabucco Scala expectation; Austrian censorship still framed sacred-historical plots.

Named person as heading of the dated public instrument. Later editors, museums, printers, or offices share publication. Complex where later carriers are the surviving public file.

## Evidence and sources

Teatro alla Scala and Britannica independently date the 1843 Lombardi premiere.

Official or archival record: Teatro alla Scala — house heritage of Verdi premieres (https://www.teatroallascala.org/en/; Teatro alla Scala).

## Significance

A completed major premiere expands public musical learning on an edu path.

## What is established and what is not

Established: 11 February 1843 premiere. Not established: that chorus lines uniquely caused 1848.

What would change the picture: a contradictory original with a different date or name, or a measured series that can be argued, with lag and alternatives, as a consequence of this instrument rather than of later institutions.

The date is the date of this instrument, not a licence to back-date every later harm or benefit.

Established here: a sourced, dated public instrument with a named contribution by Giuseppe Verdi.

They are not a public rating.

Giuseppe Verdi did not file a later UNESCO form, a later Loeb colophon, or a later museum label as a personal act. A portrait or conventional bust is not this mechanism. Allegation, reconstruction, and established occurrence stay distinct. Keep later nationalist reception distinct from the 1843 night. Keep the carrier date of later English distinct from the received historical year stored in the date field. Do not read a later English edition as a recovered autograph of Giuseppe Verdi.
