Eliza Mazzucato Young (July 7, 1846 – March 27, 1937) was an Italian-born American composer, musician, and educator. She wrote Mr. Sampson of Omaha (1888), one of the first operas by a woman to be produced in the United States.
Early life
Elisa Mazzucato was born in Milan, the daughter of opera composer Alberto Mazzucato and Teresa Bolza, a daughter of Count Шаблон:Ill, Austrian police commissioner in Milan.[1][2]
Her father was the director of the conservatory at the Teatro alla Scala in Milan. She studied music with her father, and in London.[1][3][4]
Career
Eliza Mazzucato taught at the National Training School of Music in London, before it closed in 1882, and then at the Royal College of Music.[5] She resigned in 1883 when she married one of the students, an American baritone named Bicknell Young. The couple moved to Salt Lake City in 1885, to open a music school,[5] and they performed together in New York City in 1886. By 1895, they were living in Chicago, performing, touring, and teaching at the Chicago Conservatory.[6][7][8]
Young composed the music for the comic opera Mr. Sampson of Omaha (1888),[9][10] one of the first operas by a woman to be produced in the United States; the libretto was by Fred Nye.[11] Sheet music for songs from the opera continued to be published for years after its debut.[12] Other compositions by Young included a one-act opera, The Maiden and the Reaper, and short works for voice, including a song in French, "Le Roi Don Juan",[3] and a setting of Psalm 130.[13] She also wrote pedagogical pieces, such as "Staccato Étude in B".[14][15]
Personal life
Eliza Mazzucato married fellow musician Brigham Bicknell Young (1856-1938),[16] a son of Joseph Young and a nephew of Brigham Young, in London in 1883.[17] They had three sons, Arrigo Mazzucato Young (1884-1954, born in England),[18] Hilgard Bicknell Young (1885-1979, born in Utah), and Umberto Young (1887-1965, born in Utah). Despite her husband's family connections in the Mormon community, the couple were adherents to Christian Science from the 1890s.[19] Eliza Mazzucato Young died in Beverly Hills, California in 1937, aged 90 years.[20][21]
