- Note
- Partenope ("Parthenope", HWV 27) is an opera by George Frideric Handel, first performed at the King´s Theatre in London on 24 February 1730. Although following the structure and forms of opera seria, the work is humorous in character and light-textured in music, with a plot involving romantic complications and gender confusion.A success with audiences at the time of its original production and then unperformed for many years, Partenope is now often seen on the world´s opera stages.
