He trained his two daughters as operatic singers. Maria 1808-1836 became the most famous singer of her time a living legend after she debuted in the role of Rosina in "Barber". Her father brought his family troupe to New York City where they performed the first Italian opera in NYC. Rossini Donizetti Chopin Mendelssohn and Liszt were strong supporters. Rossini considered Malibran a genius among singers he knew. Teatro Malibran in Venice is named for her after she appeared there in 1835. The Cuban-born author the Countess de Merlin was young beautiful rich talented and connected. A musician writer and wit her salon in Paris was very popular and promoted the career of Balzac.

A second and third memoir of Malibran appears in vol. 2 along with selections from her correspondence anecdotes and finishes with a set of Italian sonnets and odes addressed to Madame Malibran.

Folengo's focus on contemporary life and customs as well as his humour made his poems enjoy great popularity in the 16th century in which numerous editions of them appeared. His writings also inspired Rabelais who found in it the prototype of his figures 'Pantagruel' and 'Gargantua'. A first complete edition appeared in 1521.
