TALISMANO, IL. Grand opera in 3 acts; music by Balfe. Produced at Her Majesty's Opera, June 11, 1874. The book, founded on Walter Scott's 'Talisman,' was written by A. Mattheson in English, and so composed; but was translated into Italian by Sig. Zaffira for the purpose of production at the Italian Opera. The work was left unfinished by Balfe, and completed by Dr. G. A. Macfarren.
