The fact that #Hasse & #Metastasio praised the Vienna 1776 Oratorio #LaPassione written by #Salieri is interesting, since #Salieri-#Gluck group/party was direct music adversary of #Hasse-#Metastasio group!

A protégé of Metastasio, Martines studied music with Haydn, Hasse and Porpora. The first woman admitted to Bologna's prestigious Accademia Filarmonica, she was one of Vienna's biggest stars, celebrated throughout Europe for her compositions, singing and harpsichord playing alike.

Il "caro Sassone" era Händel, il "divino Sassone" era Hasse. Sta fissa di dare delle divine, magnifiche, stupende etc. rimonta già ai tempi di Metastasio: le fans della Callas e della Sutherland non hanno inventato nulla. Se penso a Piramo & Tisbe a me viene in mente il Britten del Midsummer N's.D.
