It will come as no surprise to see the names of two composers at the head of this Didone abbandonata, Leonardo Vinci and Georg Friedrich Handel. The reason for the juxtaposition is simple: this is indeed an opera that Vinci wrote for Naples in 1726, but in a version which was completely revised by Handel for the London stage in 1737. The "Caro Sassone" has changed the tonalities, the orders of the arias, the sequences, and added something here (arias in particular... from Hasse, which he had already recycled in some other works of "his"!), cutting a little there, so the final product owes as much to one composer as to the other. And here, the Lautten Compagney presents the world's first recording of this work as re-written: a reading based directly on Handel's personal score, even though he was too badly-afflicted by rheumatism to personally direct the performance of 13 April 1737. This is one of many works he re-wrote to the point of pastiche, which was a great speciality of the 18th century, a time when authors' rights were a rather woollier concept than they are today. © SM/Qobuz
