Misc. Notes	Overture reduced for piano solo by Truzzi, rest reduced for solo voice and piano (though originally possibly using multiple voices and even perhaps chorus- other sources need to be consulted, e.g. manuscript full scores at libraries. However, even this reduced incomplete score has chorus.) This seems to be the score of the overture and nos. 3, 8, 11 and 17 (see HMB link).

Melodramma semiserio - not tagged as "melodrama" however since melodrama only applies to works with narration (melodrama in a specific sense).

Overture published in 1855 (Hofmeister's Monatsbericht (1855), p.864) if not earlier.
