Giustino

Giustino

"Giustino" (or "Justin") is an opera in three acts by George Frideric Handel. The Italian-language libretto was adapted from Pietro Pariati's "Giustino", after Nicolo Beregan's "Il Giustino".

Performance history

The opera was first given at the Covent Garden Theatre in London on 16 February 1737 and on 8 further occasions. It was also performed in Brunswick in August 1741. The first modern performance was in Abingdon on 21 April 1963. The first London performance since Handel's time was in November 1983. [Dean, Winton, "Music in London: Handel Operas" (January 1984). "The Musical Times", 125 (1691): pp. 36-37.] It was also produced at the Komische Oper, Berlin by Harry Kupfer in 1985.
