About the opera Partenope
Partenope (HWV 27) is an opera by George Frideric Handel, first performed at the King's Theatre in London on 24 February 1730.
The opera, which is in three acts, is composed to an Italian libretto adapted by an unknown hand from a libretto originally written in 1699 by Silvio Stampiglia. Stampiglia's libretto had received many previous settings, including one by Caldara which Handel may have seen in Venice around 1710.
