Demetrio (1779)
''Demetrio'' is an eighteenth-century Italian opera in 3 acts by the Czech composer Josef Mysliveček. It was the composer's second setting of a libretto by the Italian poet Metastasio that was first performed in 1731, one of the most popular of the Metastasian librettos in Mysliveček's day. For a performance in the 1770s, it would only be expected that a libretto of such age would be abbreviated and altered to suit contemporary operatic taste. The cuts and changes in the text made for the 1779 performance of Mysliveček's opera are not attributable. All of Mysliveček's operas are of the serious type in Italian language referred to as opera seria.
==Performance history==
The opera was first performed at the Teatro San Carlo in Naples on 13 August 1779 in honor of the birthday of the queen of Naples, Maria Carolina.〔Detailed documentation concerning the Naples performance of Mysliveček's ''Demetrio'' of 1779 is found in Daniel E. Freeman, ''Josef Mysliveček, "Il Boemo"'' (Sterling Heights, Mich.: Harmonie Park Press, 2009).〕 It was the last of the nine operas composed by Mysliveček for the Teatro San Carlo between the years 1767-79, more than by any other composer during the same period. It was only a modest success, however, and its run was interrupted by an eruption of the volcano Mt. Vesuvius. The cast was not particularly distinguished for a production at the San Carlo, but it did include the castrato Domenico Bedini, who would later appear in Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's opera La clemenza di Tito in Prague in 1791.
