Mozart

Idomeneo Premier

Thursday Jan 29, 1778
Cuvilliés Theatre, Munich, Germany

Idomeneo's first dress rehearsal was coinciding with the 25th birthday of Mozart. His father Leopold had arrived with Nannerl in Munich sometime between then and the premiere. The first night-the only fair night-went really well. Mozart had achieved the popularity he had wished for, but for another 5 years the opera would not be performed again.
