Filippo Marchetti (26 February 1831 – 18 January 1902) was an Italian opera composer. Overshadowed, like other Italian opera composers of his period, by the genius of Verdi, Marchetti achieved one great success with his 1869 opera, Ruy Blas.

[edit] Major works

  • Romeo e Giulietta (1865; revised 1872 and 1876). Done recently in Italy and available on CD
  • Ruy Blas (1869) Available on CD, but badly cut
  • Gustavo Wasa (1875) revival planned in 2007
  • Don Giovanni d'Austria (1880)
