Also in 1832, inspired by a 17th-century poem by [[Girolamo Graziani]] titled ''[[Il Conquisto di Granata]]'' ("The Capture of [[Granada]]"), Leopardi wrote ''Consalvo''. Consalvo obtains a kiss from the woman he has long loved unrequitedly only when, gravely injured, he is at the point of death. Consalvo is different from the other canti in that it has the form of a novella in verse or of a dramatic scene. It is the fruit of the sentimental and languid literature which characterized much of the romanticism outside of Italy. 

In the early 20th century, the poem was placed into a musical setting as a symphonic poem of the same title by the young italian flautist [[Nicholas Laucella]] during a premier performance at [[Carnegie Hall]] with the [[New York Philharmonic]] in 1911.<ref name="auto6">{{Cite web|url=https://archives.nyphil.org/index.php/artifact/4fa54c0b-05a3-4a62-899c-0dba45e799fe-0.1/fullview#page/6/mode/2up|title=New York Philharmonic Program (ID: 1491), 1911 Nov 26|first=New York Philharmonic Leon Levy Digital|last=Archives|date=November 26, 1911|website=New York Philharmonic Leon Levy Digital Archives}}</ref>
