Violante Camporesi, or Camporese (23 December 1785 – 1839), was an Italiansoprano.
Born in Rome in 1785, she was the daughter of an architect, Giulio, and Maddalena Belli. After marrying Giustiniani, she found herself in financial difficulties and therefore thought of dedicating herself to singing professionally.
She retired from active singing in 1829 and died in Rome in 1839.[1]
Musical career
Camporesi performed for the first time in public in 1809 singing arias in a concert in Rome, which were followed by numerous concerts that soon made her famous even outside Italy. She was hired for Napoleon's private concerts to perform in Paris. While in Paris, she trained with Girolamo Crescentini for quite some time to improve her vocal qualities.
After retiring in 1829, Camporesi participated in private concerts performing music by Boïeldieu and to Naples with Ferdinand Ries for musical entertainment.
