Johann Adolph Hasse (1699-1783)

'Antigono' (1744)
Dramma per musica in 3 acts

Libretto: Pietro Metastasio

Demetrio's aria (Act I)

Contro il destin, che freme
di sue procelle armato,
combatteremo insieme
amato genitor.

Fuggir le tue ritorte
che giova alla mia fede?
Se non le avessi al piede,
le sentirei nel cor.

  • Very nice. This would be a good piece to illustrate the evolution to classical from barroque.  To me, it sounds later than 1744.

  • Check out Terradellas, his Artaserse from the same year (1744) is even more classicist.

    But Hasse certainly liked to write in different styles. In his 'Olimpiade' (1756) some of the arias would not be out of place in 1730 while others would fit 1770 nicely.
