Demofoonte (Mysliveček) (1769)
''Demofoonte'' is an opera in three acts by the Czech composer Josef Mysliveček. It was the composer's first setting of this popular libretto by Metastasio first produced in 1733 (it was common in the second half of the eighteenth-century for composers to set Metastasian texts two or more times over). This setting stays remarkably close to the original drama for its day (it was customary to alter Metastasian texts considerably so long after their original performances), but the role of Timante was augmented in order to highlight the talents of its interpreter, the distinguished male soprano Gaetano Guadagni. All of Mysliveček's operas are of the serious type in Italian referred to as opera seria.
==Performance history==
The opera was first performed at the Teatro San Benedetto in Venice on 17 January 1769. It was very successful when it appeared. Indeed, the composer's first biographer, František Martin Pelcl, claimed that Venetian nobles stood in line outside of the theater to applaud his talents.〔See František Martin Pelcl, ''Abbildungen böhmischer und mährischer Gelehrten und Künstler'', vol. 4 (Prague, 1782), p. 190; transcription and translation into English in Freeman, pp. 383-86.〕 The role of Timante in this production was sung by the great castrato Gaetano Guadagni during the last portion of his long career. Mysliveček's second version of ''Demofoonte'' premiered at the Teatro San Carlo, Naples in 1775.
