Description:
Salieri's setting, which is close to the Italian opera seria, seems to have particularly pleased the famous poet. In a letter to the composer, who was only 26 years old, it stated that it was the most expressive music of all that was written on this poem. – a big compliment!
Salieri wrote the work in 1776 for a concert of the "Musicalische Societät der freyen Tonkunst der Witwen und Waisen". This society was a kind of pension and insurance association and at the same time the first public concert society in Vienna, as well as the only musical institution dedicated primarily to the oratorio. The concerts took place in Advent and Lent at the Burgtheater.
