1794006157Venezia: Tipografia Pepoliana 1794-1795. Quarter Calf. Marbled boards. . Very Good. The collected full-length operas of the foremost librettist of opere serie during the eighteenth century. 16mo. 11.5 by 7.5 cm. While these operas were set to music originally by composers mostly forgotten a few of them were re-used as libretti by others and most notably by Mozart who set music to "La Clemenza di Tito" which has in more recent years become a staple of the major opera houses. All of Metastasio's full length operas are here except for "Siface Re di Numidia" and "L'Impresario delle Isole Canarie". We strongly believe that the set is complete as the operas are arranged generally in chronological order and they are in strict chronological order in the latter half; in other words the two omitted works if they were part of the set would have been in the earlier numbers. There is one opera per volume. Each volume has a copper engraved illustration on its title page. All the volumes contain the decorative bookplate of Alexander Speirs who was a prominent Scottish politician in the early 19th century. Spine labels with number of volume only missing all or part of the labels for volumes 5 11 and 14. Spine leather heavily worn on Vol. 11 by joint where chewed and 12 the latter has a slight remnant of the label. Boards with speckled marbled paper pastedowns. These have some darkening. The bindings otherwise with minor bumping here and there and scattered scuffs. Nonetheless the near-miniature set remains very attractive and also very uncommon. <br/><br/> Tipografia Pepoliana hardcover books
17671333<b>Partenope. Festa teatrale da rappresentarsi in musica nell imperial regio teatro festeggiandosi i felicissimi sponsali di Ferdinando II. di Borbone re delle Due Sicilie e di Maria Giuseppa d'Austr</b>ia l'anno MDCCLXVII Vienna: Nella stamperia di Ghelen 1767. First edition of the Ghelen libretto. Sartori 17845 42pp.; Sonneck 851; Schtz 4551. <br /><br />Small quarto 6 3/4 x 8 3/4". Modern floral boards. Engraved title shaved at bottom. A few stains on last leaf otherwise fine. Page of printed half title verso blank; 1p. blank frontis engraving on reverse; 1p. engraved title verso blank; 1p. argomento; 1p. inerlocutor; 40pp. text. Collation: 3 A-E4. Ornaments engraved initials. Festival drama in two scenes with chorus at the end. Music by Johann Adolf Hasse libretto by Pietro Metastasio. <br /><br />This drama was composed at the command of Empress Maria Theresa for the marriage of Ferdinand I 1751-1825 king of Two Siciles to Archduchess Maria Josepha of Austria. The drama was at Vienna's Burgtheater on September 9 1767. Mozart was in attendance. It had been presented at court the evening before. <br /><br />This libretto has little to do with the traditional basis for the opera Partenope originally written in 1699 by Silvio Stampiglia. Instead it was given over to singing and dancing to celebrate the happiness of the royal couple with special Neapolitan equipment for the 2stage setting described in detail in the text. Also of importance is the role of the choir which is presented here as a character in the action not simply a passive voice. This production failed as drama since the plot had little to offer in the way of suspense as well as other qualities that are required for successful drama. Nevertheless due to its flourishes and use of the spectacular it was restaged in Livorno Naples Palermo and Roma Sartori 17845-50. <br /><br /><b>Partenope</b> in this setting was also staged at the Regio Teatro del Nuovo San-Souci Torino in 1775 Berlin: Haude e Spener. Like the few other Ghelen publications of the decade devoted to festival performance Partenope is an elegant production with its many fine engravings and ornaments suggestive of the characters at the beginning of each scene. Ghelen was the court printer for the Holy Roman Empire during this era. There are a total of eight engravings two full-page by J.C. von Reinsperger after J. Biderman. <br /><br />According to Greek legend Parthenope was the daughter of the god Achelous and the Muse Terpsichore. She cast herself into the sea and drowned when her songs failed to entice Odysseus. Her body washed ashore at Naples on the island of Megaride where the Castel dell'Ovo is now located. When people from the city of Cumae settled there they named their city Parthenope in her honor. <br /><br />Several operas based on the myth of Parthenope were composed in the 18th century by Sarro 1722 Vinci 1725 Handel 1730 Vivaldi 1738 and Hasse 1767. Sartori identifies 32 different printing of this libretto prior to ours. OCLC: CGU GZM NYP DLC.<br /><br /> Ghelen hardcover books
