5-DANAIDES 1784: WHO WROTE IT? GLUCK? SALIERI!
After being defeated in Paris by #Piccinni 1779/81, #Gluck position was weak/delicate, as protege of #MarieAntoinette! So #Salieri (as #Gluck protege) opera was 1st performed as #Gluck: when success #Salieri was revealed as #Author!
4-DANAIDES 1784: SERIES OF CLASHES & INTRIGUES ORIGIN OF SALIERI MASTERPIECE
#Salieri 1784 masterpiece opera #LesDanaïdes originated from clash between #Gluck (old & ill after losing 1779/81 #Paris war to #Piccinni) & #Calzabigi on Libretto: #Millico wrote Opera before #Salieri!
