La Statira was first performed in Rome in January 1690. The opera, with libretto by Cardinal Ottoboni, recounts the story of Alexander the Great's defeat of Darius, King of Persia, and his love for Statira, daughter of Darius. In his Introduction, William Holmes sketches the opera's history and discusses performance questions.
