Agrippina
Baroque opera by Handel about the life and intrigues of Agrippina the Elder, mother of Emperor Nero.
Agrippina is an opera by Georg Friedrich Handel, composed in 1709 to a libretto by Vincenzo Grimani. The plot revolves around the scheming Agrippina and her efforts to secure the Roman throne for her son Nero. One of Handel's earliest operatic triumphs, it has seen a strong revival on stages worldwide in recent decades.
