Dear list,

I thought I would share with you the sad news that Prof. Carlo
Botteghi, noted Mascagni scholar and mailing-list member, untimely
passed away last week.

Carlo was the respected author of a monography about Mascagni's
Parisina, an impressive, 300-page long book going into the details of
the composition of the work, its significance in Mascagni's
production, its libretto and its music. He was also the head of the
Centro Studi Mascagnani of Livorno and was working on several projects
under that umbrella. He was going to publish soon a monography about
Isabeau, that his family and friends are now hoping to get published
posthumously.

His wife Vera still gets the emails sent to this mailing-list. Let's
wish her strength and support in this difficult time. Her husband will
be missed by many.

-Erik
