1Mancinelli
2toric San Petronio, Basilica, and at the Teatro Comunale. In 1884 he produced his first opera, Isora di Provenza, which was well received. In 1886 he decided to try his fortune in London, where he gave a concert of classical music, interspersed with a few of his own compositions, which was such a success that he was asked to compose an oratorio for the Norwich Festival, and wrote Isaías, which was well received. In 1887 Sir Augustus Harris engaged him to conduct Italian Opera at Drury Lane, when he embarked on that enterprise, which not only introduced Mancinelli to the British public as a first-rate conductor but was the beginning of Jean de Reszké's immense popularity as a tenor. The following year Harris engaged Covent Garden Theatre, and Mancinelli conducted a company which included both De Reszkés, Melba, Nordica and Lasalle. He was also conductor for Harris' Italian Opera Company in New York. From 1888 to 1895 he was conductor of the Royal Theatre at Madrid, returning to England every year for the season at Covent Garden, where he may still be found. His compositions include the operas, Isora di Provenza, and Ero e Leandro; the oratorio, Isaías; several orchestral suites; and masses.
