Lauro Rossi (born in Macerata, 19 February 1810; died in Cremona, 5 May1885), was an Italian composer, particularly of operas. There is no known connection with Luigi Rossi (1597–1653). Rossi studied in Naples and produced his first opera there. His greatest success was with the comic opera originally entitled La casa disabitata, which was performed for many years in its revised form under the title I falsi monetari. However, Rossi suffered a fiasco in 1835, after which he left Naples for Mexico,then Cuba. Read more on Last.fm
