The opera Cleofide by Johann Adolf Hasse was part of an ambitious plan to revive the art of Italian opera at the Saxon court. The dramatic plot – about Alexander the Great’s conquests in India – is brought to life by Hasse’s brilliant setting.
The instrumental “Sinfonia” provides an atmospheric introduction to the work, preparing us musically for the drama to follow. Imbued with a sense of majesty, it reflects both the splendor and the contradictions of the ancient world.
