Giuseppe Verdi
Written in C major, range G3 to B4
“Woman is fickle, like a feather in the wind”: the careless Duke sings it in an inn in Rigoletto, never guessing that the fickle one is himself. Verdi kept the tune secret until the dress rehearsal so no one could whistle it in Venice before the premiere in 1851; the piano part is from G. Schirmer’s 1913 edition.
