The Italian libretto, by G. A. Migliavacca, re-tells the well-known episode from Ovid’s Metamorphoses in which the nymph Galatea witnesses the death of her lover Acis (Acide) at the hands of the cyclops Polyphemus. Four arias and most of the recitatives from the original 1763 version of Acide have been lost, but complementing the remaining numbers are two arias and a recitative composed by Haydn for a planned, but never realised, second production in 1773.
Cast:
- Bernard Richter: Acide
