Vintage Disderi studio photo showing Barbara Marchioso in Arsace (Semiramis), address on reverse.

Ces deux soeurs, cantatrices universellement célèbres, firent la quasi-intégralité de leurs carrières ensemble et leurs biographies sont indissociables.

Italian soprano Carlotta Marchisio [Turin: 8 Dec 1835 - 28 Jun 1872] as Semiramis in Rossini's Semiramide. She was a student of Luigi Fabbrica in Turin. There are source disagreements about her debut. One source has her debut in Venice, another has her debut in Madrid [1856] with her sister, as Norma and Adalgise respectively (the sisters often sang together). She appeared in all the leading Italian cities, as well as St. Petersburg, London, and Paris [1860]. Rossini wrote his Petite Messe Solennelle [1864] for her and her sister, contralto Barbara Marchisio [Turin: 6 Dec 1833 - Mira: 19 Apr 1919].
