Some documents in the State Archives of Mantua provide new information about the identity of the "ingegnere mantovano", who was the scenopgrapher of the first 'dramma in musica' in Poland, i.e., the staging of La Galatea in Warsaw in 1628. He was not the engineer Giovan Battista Bertazzolo, as it has been believed until now, but probably the architect Nicolò Sebregondi, assisted by the painter Guglielmo Viani, both employed in Mantua, whose presence in Central Europe is documented after the deaths of the dukes Ferdinando and Vincenzo II Gonzaga.

Abstract
Some documents in the State Archives of Mantua provide new information about the identity of the "ingegnere mantovano", who was the scenopgrapher of the first 'dramma in musica' in Poland, i.e., the staging of La Galatea in Warsaw in 1628. He was not the engineer Giovan Battista Bertazzolo, as it has been believed until now, but probably the architect Nicolò Sebregondi, assisted by the painter Guglielmo Viani, both employed in Mantua, whose presence in Central Europe is documented after the deaths of the dukes Ferdinando and Vincenzo II Gonzaga.File in questo prodotto:
