Of the homonymous and more famous opera of Pergolesi, La Serva Padrona by Paisiello represents an interesting variant of the model which signalled the birth of the opera buffa. The lack of libretti was one of the main problems faced by the musician during the years spent at the Russian Court (1176-84) and, as the composer himself explains in a letter to Ferdinando Galiani in September 1781, “in order not to have here neither poet nor books, I was forced to set to music La Serva Padrona composed many years ago by Pergolesi”. Brushing up the already set to music libretto of Pergolesi in 1733for the name day of the grand duke Alessandro (at the time a four-year old child), Paisiello added something and modified the instrumentation, having at his disposition the excellent imperial orchestra, of course richer than the sole strings of Pergolesi. In the new score we find a great usage of wind instruments (flutes, oboes, clarinets, bassoons and horns, all in couples), used both for their ‘ripieno’ (‘stuffing’) and for the concerted dialogues, where Paisiello is a master. Faced with the public of the imperial court, the musician gave up an excessively noisy and feigned comedy with its ‘trop napolitain’ tone that someone had already attributed to him.
