Leipzig Opera
The first performance was one of the twenty operas, almost all entirely lost, that Telemann wrote in his student days for the young Leipzig Opera. The second revised version of the opera was Telemann's first offering for the reopening of the Hamburg Opera at the Oper am Gänsemarkt, after having succeeded Reinhard Keiser in running the opera in the previous year. The Hamburg performance took place on 30 August 1724.
