Orfeo ed Euridice is an opera composed by Christoph W. Gluck based
on the myth of Orpheus, set to a libretto by Ranieri de' Calzabigi.
It is the first of Gluck's "reform" operas, in which he attempted
to replace the abstruse plots and overly complex music of opera
seria with a "noble simplicity" in both the music and the drama.
Though originally set to an Italian libretto, Orfeo ed Euridice
owes much to the genre of French opera, particularly in its use of
accompanied recitative and a general absence of vocal virtuosity.
Indeed, twelve years after the 1762 premiere, Gluck re-adapted the
opera to suit the tastes of a Parisian audience at the Academie
Royale de Musique with a libretto by Pierre-Louis Moline.
