Abstract

A complete reconsideration of the commission and performance history of Mozart's Oratorio Betulia liberata during the author's lifetime; based on newly published evidence. The oratorio was most likely not performed in Padua (from where it had been commissioned) but rather in Salzburg. Also uncertain are the conjectured late 1780s performances in Vienna while the work might have had an influence on the composition of M.'s Don Giovanni.
