Teseo

:"For the missile, see Teseo."

"Teseo" (or 'Theseus') is an opera seria with music by George Frideric Handel, the only Handel opera that is in five acts. [Price, Curtis, "Teseo" in Boston and London" (February 1986). "Early Music", 14 (1): pp. 149, 151.] The Italian-language libretto was by Nicola Francesco Haym, after Philippe Quinault's Thésée. It was Handel's third London opera, intended to follow the success of "Rinaldo" after the unpopular "Il pastor fido".

The opera was premiered at the Queen's Theatre in London on 10 January 1713. It received an additional 12 performances through 16 May 1713. [Kimbell, David, "The Libretto of Handel's "Teseo" (October 1963). "Music & Letters", 44 (4): pp. 371-379.] The singers included the castratos Valeriano Pellegrini and Valentino Urbani. Between 1713 and 1984, there were only two revivalsDean, Winton, "Music in London: Opera - "Teseo" (October 1985). "The Musical Times", 126 (1712): pp. 611-612.] , the first being the revival under Fritz Lehmann in Göttingen on 29 June 1947. In 1985, the tercentenary year for the Handel commemorations, the opera received three revivals. English Touring Opera produced "Teseo" in October and November 2007.
