Giuseppe Pietri

Giuseppe Pietri (Sant'Ilario, frazione of Marina di Campo, comune of Campo nell'Elba, 1886 - Milan, 1946) was an Italian composer, known primarily for his work in operetta. Excerpts from one of his works, the opera Maristella, have been released on CD. The aria "Io conosco un giardino" from that work has been quite popular with tenors, and has been frequently recorded separately; among the singers to record it are Beniamino Gigli, Joseph Calleja and more recently, Rolando Villazón.
