(29 November 1797 – 8 April 1848) was a famous Italian opera composer. His most famous work is Lucia di Lammermoor (1835). Along with Vincenzo Bellini and Gioacchino Rossini, he was a leading composer of bel canto opera.
Donizetti composed about 75 operas, 16 symphonies, 19 string quartets, 193 songs, 45 duets, 3 oratorios, 28 cantatas, instrumental concertos, sonatas, and other chamber pieces.

He was born in Bergamo into a very poor family with no tradition of music, but in 1806 he was one of the first pupils to be enrolled in a charity school at Bergamo founded by Simon Mayr.

Donizetti is best known for his operatic works, but he also wrote music in a number of other forms, including some church music, a number of string quartets, and some orchestral works.

He is also the younger brother of Giuseppe Donizetti, who had become, in 1828, Instructor General of the Imperial Ottoman Music at the court of Sultan Mahmud II (1808-1839).

Donizetti's vocal style enriched the Bel Canto tradition which Rossini and Bellini had made popular. These three composers are generally accepted as the primary exemplars of early 19th century Bel Canto writing.

Don Pasquale: "Bella Siccome Un Angelo"
Gaetano Donizetti Lyrics


Bella siccome un angelo像天使一样美丽
In terra pellegrino.在大地上朝圣的天使
Fresca siccome il giglio嫩的好像
Che s'apre in sul mattino.早上刚盛开的百合
Occhio che parla e ride,那双会说会笑的眼睛
Sguardo che i cor conquide.看了魂儿都要被勾走
Chioma che vince l'ebano她有头乌黑亮丽的秀发
Sorriso incantator.笑起来跟唱歌一般
Sorriso incantator.笑起来跟唱歌一般
clma innocente ingenua,她有无辜单纯的灵魂
Che sé medesma ignora;自己却浑然不知
Modestia impareggiabile,她特别谦逊听话
Bonta che v'innamora你会爱上她的好心肠
ci miseri pietosa,她关心穷人乞丐，
Gentil, dolce, amorosa.和蔼，温柔，可爱
Il cel l'ha fatta nascere老天爷让她来到世界上
Per far beato un cor.就是为了造福人类啊
Per far beato un cor.就是为了造福人类啊
Il ciel l'ha fatta nascere老天爷让她来到世界上
Per far beato un cor.就是为了造福人类啊
Il ciel l'ha fatta nascere老天爷让她来到世界上
Per far beato un cor.就是为了造福人类啊

English Translation of 'Bella Siccome Un Angelo'
Beautiful as an angel
like a pilgrim on earth.
Fresh as a lily
which opens in the morning.
Eyes that speak and laugh,
looks that can conquer the heart.
Hair blacker than ebony
enchanting smile.
Enchanting smile.
A soul so innocent and candid,
that ignores itself;
unparalleled modesty,
sweetness that with which one falls in love
compassionate to the poor,
gentle, good, loving.
Heaven gave her birth
to make happy hearts.
to make happy hearts.
Heaven gave her birth
to make happy hearts.
Heaven gave her birth
to make happy hearts.

Bella siccome un'angelo In terra perregrino, Fresca siccome il giglio che s'apre in sul mattino. Occhio che parla e ride, sguardo che i cor conquide. Chioma che vince l'ebano sorriso incantator. Sorriso incantator. Alma innocente e candida, che sé medesma ignora; modestia impareggiabile, dolcezza che innamora ai miseri pietosa, gentil, buona, amorosa. Il ciel l'ha fatta nascere per far beato un cor. per far beato un cor. Il ciel l'ha fatta nascere per far beato un cor.
