 ====== Giuseppe Verdi ======
+===== Birth =====
+Fortunino, Giuseppe Francesco Verdi was born on October 9 or 10, 1813, in a hamlet near Busseto, which was part of the First French Empire at the time. In French, his given name was Joseph Fortunin François.[([[https://www.britannica.com/biography/Giuseppe-Verdi|Britannica]])]
+===== Library Education =====

+===== Studying Music =====
+Verdi moved to Milan at the age of 20 to further his studies. While visiting operatic performances and concerts, he received private composing instruction. In 1830, he performed his first public concert in Bussetto at the home of Barezzi, a local trader and music enthusiast who had long encouraged his musical goals.[([[https://courses.lumenlearning.com/musicapp_historical/chapter/verdi/|Lumen Learning]])]
+===== Margherita =====
+Barezzi invited Verdi to be his daughter Margherita's music teacher, and the two soon fell deeply in love and married. Margherita gave birth to two children, Virginia and Icilio. Both died in infancy while Verdi was working on his first opera and, shortly afterwards, Margherita died aged only 26. Verdi was devastated by their deaths.[([[https://www.timetoast.com/timelines/giuseppe-verdi|timetoast]])]
