The new critical edition of Vincenzo Bellini's Carteggi is proposed more than fifty years after that of Luisa Cambi and represents the first complete reconstruction of Bellini's epistolary corpus, as it sets the musicians letters alongside those of his correspondents. Based on scientifically updated criteria, the edition provides valuable information on the network of relationships of the composer from Catania, his artistic and intellectual path, and his compositional oeuvre.
