Lucio Cornelio Silla (HWV 10) (Vocal Score)

Handel, George Frideric

Handel Lucio Cornelio Silla (HWV 10) (Vocal Score)
Opera in 3 Acts

The libretto of Handel’s shortest opera is based on Plutarch’s account of the life of the cruel Roman consul and dictator Lucius Cornelius Sulla.

He was a figure who went down in history above all for his reign of terror, his libertine life-style and his unexpected abdication and withdrawal to private life. As Sulla voluntarily declined his rulership, Handel was able to provide a “lieto fine” – the happy ending typical of Baroque opera.
