Georg Friedrich Händels Alcina zählt zu den bekanntesten und erfolgreichsten
Musiktheaterwerken des Komponisten. Schon die Uraufführung im Jahr 1735 im neu errichteten

anspruchsvollen Solo-Partien, Chorszenen sowie die überaus wechselhafte Handlung mit
Verkleidungs- und Verwandlungselementen rissen das Publikum zu Begeisterungsstürmen hin
und erweisen sich heute, mehr als 250 Jahre nach der Erstaufführung, als unverändert effektvoll.
