Composed in 1838, Poliuto is a masterpiece from Donizetti's mature years. It is rarely performed because the title role - the most dramatic part which Donizetti ever wrote for a tenor - is so difficult to sing. The opera was forbidden by the Naples censors and was finaly staget only after Donizetti had died.
