what does L'incoronazione di Poppea and Fra Diavolo have in common?
Fra Diavolo (opera) The opera was first performed by the Opéra-Comique at the Salle Ventadour in Paris on 28 January 1830 and an Italian version was prepared by Auber and Scribe for performance in London in 1857. This contained new recitatives and arias, as well as expanding the roles of Fra Diavolo's accomplices.
Piazza del Popolo Piazza del Popolo is a large urban square in Rome. The name in modern Italian literally means "People's Square", but historically it derives from the poplars ("populus" in Latin, "pioppo" in Italian) after which the church of Santa Maria del Popolo, in the northeast corner of the piazza, takes its name.
