“ Amadigi ” was probably written with the famous castrato Nicolini in mind, who sang the title role in the premiere. The opera remained regularly in the repertoire until 1717 with small changes caused by illness or a change of singers. “ Amadigi ” was also performed several times in German in Hamburg between 1717 and 1720.
The new vocal score is based on volume II/8 of the “Halle Handel” Edition; the appendix contains all surviving variants from the original performances during Handel’s lifetime.
