| Summary |
"Premiered at the Teatro San Cassiano in 1645, Doriclea was the first Venetian opera ever to feature as its title character an Amazon warrior woman. The opera is a product of the librettist Giovanni Faustini (ca. 1615-51) and the composer Francesco Cavalli (1602-76), whose highly influential creative partnership in the 1640s solidified many conventions of the emerging art form of opera in Venice. The manuscript score, now in the Biblioteca Nazionale Marciana, preserves a five-part orchestral accompaniment, rare expression and dynamic markings, and a rather full set of continuo figures. In the scope of Francesco Cavalli's output, Doriclea stands out with its unusual, long-range tonal connections that pertain to the portrayal of the opera's heroine." -- Provided by publisher. |
