$94.50
- Description
Handel’s “Deidamia” was premiered on 10 January 1741, only a few weeks after “Imeneo”. The librettist, Paolo Rolli, a previously unsuccessful librettist for Handel, delivered his finest work with “Deidamia”. On 10 February 1741, the third and final opera performances of this work took place under Handel’s direction. Oddly enough, “Deidamia” would not be performed again until the beginning of the 20th century. This opera is based on the themes of humour and seriousness. The personal harmonizing of Heroism (Achilles) and Love (Deidamia) build on the essential dramatic features of this work. “Deidamia” is the last great opera in a series of masterpieces: “Orlando”, “Poro”, “Ezio”, “Ariodante”, “Alcina”, “Serse”, and “Imeneo”. The vocal score is based on the Urtext of the Halle Handel Edition.
