This eBook contains the Violin II part of La gazza ladra (The Thieving Magpie), one of Gioachino Rossini's most iconic overtures, transcribed for string quartet by Enrico Zullino. Now recognized as part of the Italian opera tradition designated a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage in 2024, this work represents a unique intersection of musical excellence and historical legacy.

  • Viola
  • Cello
  • Set in E major and lasting approximately 9 minutes, the transcription offers a vibrant and stylistically faithful adaptation of Rossini's orchestral original. The Violin II part plays a crucial harmonic and contrapuntal role, complementing the outer voices while contributing to the rhythmic vitality that defines the piece.
    Included in this edition are in-depth informational sheets, providing historical, cultural, and theoretical insights. These materials are available in seven languages (English, Italian, French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, and Polish), supporting global engagement with this repertoire and enhancing musical interpretation.
