The History of a Baroque Opera
This study of Scarlatti's first and most-performed opera investigates the reasons for its popularity, initially political, but subsequently musical. Among the details inspected are the social and political situation in Rome; an analysis of the music and libretto; the earliest Roman performances using hitherto unpublished contemporary documents and comparisons with other works performed-during the Carnival of 1679; Queen Christina's early patronage of Scarlatti and his first opera; subsequent performances through 1699, the last-known production; and conclusions about the importance of this opera.
The Operas of Alessandro Scarlatti, Volume VII: Gli Equivoci Nel Sembiante
Gli Equivoci nel Sembiante (1679), Scarlatti's first opera, is a comedy of mistaken identities and amorous intrigue in the pastoral mode. It was one of the most popular works of the composer's career. In preparing the score, D'Accone compared the 6 extant manuscripts. His Introduction sketches the opera's history and discusses performance practice.
The Roman Sacred Music of Alessandro Scarlatti
This book offers an account of the sacred music written by Alessandro Scarlatti (1660-1725) in Rome, a city where the composer lived and worked for many years throughout his career. Using archival research, Luca Della Libera provides an overview of Scarlatti’s life and activities in Rome, addresses his connections with the institutions and patrons of the city, and analyses his Roman repertoire in comparison to the sacred music of other contemporary composers, demonstrating its unique characteristics. An appendix includes transcriptions of the archival sources connected with Scarlatti’s activity in Rome. The first major publication in English to address the sacred music repertoire of one of the major composers of the Italian Baroque, this book offers new insights into Scarlatti’s work and a valuable resource for researchers in musicology and early modern studies.
Alessandro Scarlatti
Excerpt from Alessandro Scarlatti: His Life and Works But Alessandro Scarlatti, though he has by no means been forgotten by them, has not been treated in any great detail; and I hope that this biography, if it does not succeed in explaining more fully his relation to the music that preceded and followed him, may at least serve as a useful foundation for future workers in the same field.
