===20th century and beyond===
It took until 1932 until the opera was again revived (in a German translation) in [[Rostock]], and it then reappeared under [[Tullio Serafin]] at the 1940 [[Maggio Musicale Fiorentino]].

Presentations at [[La Scala]] in Milan in December 1962 with [[Joan Sutherland]] and [[Giulietta Simionato]] required the re-assembly of the entire score from the Rossini autograph, since no other texts were known to exist.<ref name="Gossett">{{harvnb|Gossett|2006|p=178}}</ref>

Musicologist [[Philip Gossett]] noted that between 1962 and 1990 "some seventy opera houses have included the work in one or more seasons".<ref name="Gossett"/> A major revival at the [[Aix-en-Provence Festival]] in 1980 was directed by [[Pier Luigi Pizzi]] and featured [[Montserrat Caballé]] in the title role with [[Marilyn Horne]] as Arsace.<ref>{{cite news|author = Jacques Lonchampt|author-link = Jacques Lonchampt|title="Semiramis" a Aix en Provence|url=http://www.lemonde.fr/archives/article/1980/07/18/semiramis-a-aix-en-provence-l-incroyable-duo-horne-caballe_3069507_1819218.html|work=[[Le Monde]]|date = 18 July 1980|access-date=9 April 2018}}</ref> The same staging was then billed in sequence by the [[Teatro Carlo Felice]] in Genoa<ref>Angelo Foletto, "È madre e regina: ama, uccide, ma soprattutto canta", ''la Repubblica'', 7 March 1981.

It alternated Lella Cuberli and [[June Anderson]] in the title role with Marilyn Horne again as Arsace.<ref>{{harvnb|Gossett|2006|pp=169–199}}: He recounts the entire history of the creation of the critical edition and how it was used in the 1990 production.</ref> Among other performances, the work was given by the [[Rossini in Wildbad]] Festival in 2012, which was recorded with [[Alex Penda]] in the title role.<ref>[http://operabase.com/oplist.cgi?id=none&lang=en&is=Semiramide&by=&loc=&stype=abs&sd=1&sm=1&sy=2012&etype=abs&ed=&em=&ey= Performances listed on operabase.com since 1 January 2012]</ref> In November 2017, the Royal Opera House, London, mounted its first production of the opera since the 1890s, with [[Joyce DiDonato]] in the title role.<ref>[http://www.roh.org.uk/productions/semiramide-by-david-alden New production of Semiramide at Covent Garden, November 2017]</ref>
