Antonio Salieri was a major composer in Europe during the late 18th century. His"Axur, Re d`Ormus" was one of the most famous operas of 18th century Vienna and one of the personal favourites of Emperor Joseph II. This opera, to a libretto by Lorenzo Da Ponte, premiered at the Burgtheatre in Vienna in 1788, becoming an instant success and remaining in the repertoire well into the 19th century. It is the Italian version of "Tarare," an earlier French opera by Salieri to a libretto by Beaumarchais, one filled with political commentary and satire meant to reflect the revolutionary movement developing in France at that time.

Ouverture conducted by Michael Dittrich with the Slovak Radio Symphony Orchestra.

You know, I've given the matter about "Salieri versus Mozart" much thought over the years, and I "THINK" that Antonio kind of thought of Wolfgang as "his supremely talented, but foolish, wayward little brother" in real life. (This is probably about as close to the truth as we'll ever get.) Really, they were FAR from being enemies...

How did Salieri feel about Mozart? I don't know. Ask Mick Jagger how he feels about John Lennon. :)

That movie was mostly fictional, you know that right? It doesn't really represent their relationship.

@wks1978 Mozart did indeed compose variations on Salieri's aria "Mio caro, Adone." The scene in Amadeus where it shows Mozart creating "Non piu andrai" from a piece of Salieri's is fictional. Beethoven also composed a wonderful set of variations on Salieri's "La stessa stessissima."

Not bad for the patron saint of mediocrity. :)

Not really as good as Mozart, but it answers precisely to 18th century taste - it helps you see the points at which Mozart did new things... where Salieri goes for a conventional and satisfying soultion, Mozart does elobrate and enchant,. That scene in Amadeus where he composes variations on Salieri's march really does capture something.....

calm down people, remember that not the most famous musicians have to be necessarily, the best.

Interesting comments. Clearly, Salieri was NOT as good as Mozart. No one was in my opinion, though you could argue that Beethoven was more innovative. Still, this is certainly worth listening to. I'm glad Amadeus helped rescue Salieri from obscurity.

@bluenwhitehoops Sadly the only commercially available recording of Axur is a so/so live performance; if you enjoy this, I recommend the far better version of Axur's French original available new and used on DVD, clips are also on Youtube.
