Marche
Marche ( , ) is one of the twenty regions of Italy. In English, the region is sometimes referred to as The Marches ( ). The region is located in the central area of the country, bordered by Emilia-Romagna and the republic of San Marino to the north, Tuscany to the west, Umbria to the southwest, Abruzzo and Lazio to the south and the Adriatic Sea to the east. Except for river valleys and the often very narrow coastal strip, the land is hilly. A railway from Bologna to Brindisi, built in the 19th century, runs along the coast of the entire territory. Inland, the mountainous nature of the region, even today, allows relatively little travel north and south, except by twisting roads over the passes. Urbino, one of the major cities of the region, was the birthplace of Raphael, as well as a major centre of Renaissance history. Toponymy The name of the region derives from the plural of the medieval word '' marca'', meaning "march" or "mark" in the sense of border zone, originall ...

Giovanni Velluti (castrato)
Giovanni Battista Velluti, colloquially "Giambattista" (28 January 1780 – 22 January 1861), was an Italian castrato. Considered "the last great castrato", he had a reputation of being something of a diva, with some singers refusing to appear with him. Biography Born in Pausula (near Macerata), Italy, a local doctor castrated him at the age of eight as treatment for a cough and high fever. Velluti's father, who had planned on a military career for his son, enrolled him in musical training. He became close friends with Luigi Cardinal Chiaramonte, the man who would become Pope Pius VII, after singing a cantata sometime in his teenage years. In 1800, he made his debut at Forlì. The last great castrato roles were composed specifically for him: Arsace in Rossini's ''Aureliano in Palmira'' (1813) and Armando in Meyerbeer's ''Il crociato in Egitto'' (1824). He made his London debut in 1825 in ''Il crociato in Egitto''. The crowds reacted poorly to his initial performances as he was ...

Urbisaglia
Urbisaglia is a ''comune'' in the province of Macerata, Marche, Italy. Its name comes from the ancient Roman town Urbs Salvia. History Situated in the Regio V Picenum, along the via Salaria Gallica, the town was founded during the 2nd century BC as a '' colonia''. Its importance reached the top with Augustus and Tiberius, when it was completely rebuilt. It gave birth to some leading figures of the Roman Empire, such as the consul Gaius Fufius Geminus, and Lucius Flavius Silva Nonius Bassus the conqueror of Masada. It was utterly destroyed by Alaric in 408–10 AD, and both Procopius (E.G. II. 16, 17) and Dante Alighieri (Paradise, XVI. 73 - 78) describe its desolation. During the following centuries, the inhabitants of Urbs Salvia gradually moved to the top of the hill, giving rise to the ''Castro de Orbesallia''. In the 12th century, a very important religious, economic and cultural centre was founded nearby, the Abbey of Fiastra, which had to influence the Fiastra Va ...
