Aminta
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Aminta is a play written by Torquato Tasso in 1573.
The play has a pastoral theme, and is set in the time of Alexander the Great.
It was the base for several opera librettos, such as:
- the libretto by Metastasio on which Mozart based his opera Il re pastore, and
- the plot of Delibes ballet Sylvia, as re-written by Jules Barbier.
