Die Geschichte von der Schäferin Griselda gehört zu den beliebtesten Opernstoffen des 18. Jahrhunderts. Kein Wunder, denn die Hochzeit zwischen dem König von Sizilien und einer einfachen Schäferin, die ihre Tugend in einer Reihe von Prüfungen verteidigen muss, bis sie sich am Ende als wahre Königin erweist, bietet Stoff für abwechslungsreiche Situationen und vielfältige Affekte. Der italienische Komponist Giovanni Bononcini schrieb seine Version der Griselda 1722 für das King’s Theatre in London, dessen Hauskomponist er gemeinsam mit keinem Geringeren als Georg Friedrich Händel war. Die Rezitative der Oper waren lange verschollen, und erst in den letzten Jahren ist die lyrische, aber ungemein ideenreiche Partitur rekonstruiert worden. Max Emanuel Cencic, Countertenor und Leiter des Festivals Bayreuth Baroque, hat sich nachdrücklich für die Wiederentdeckung dieser Perle der barocken Opernkunst eingesetzt und wird das Werk gemeinsam mit dem Dirigenten Benjamin Bayl nun auch in Wien vorstellen.

The story of the shepherdess Griselda is one of the most popular opera subjects of the 18th century. No wonder, because the wedding between the King of Sicily and a simple shepherdess, who has to defend her virtue through a series of tests until she proves to be the true queen in the end, offers material for varied situations and diverse emotions. The Italian composer Giovanni Bononcini wrote his version of Griselda in 1722 for the King's Theater in London, where he was the house composer together with none other than George Frideric Handel. The opera's recitatives were long lost, and only in recent years has the lyrical but incredibly imaginative score been reconstructed. Max Emanuel Cencic, countertenor and director of the Bayreuth Baroque festival, has strongly advocated for the rediscovery of this pearl of baroque opera art and will now also present the work in Vienna together with conductor Benjamin Bayl.
