about
Domènec Terradellas (baptized, Barcelona 13 February 1713 – Rome 20 May 1751) was a Catalan opera composer, although all his works were thoroughly Italian in style. Born in Barcelona, he first studied with Francisco Valls of Barcelona Cathedral. In 1732 he went to Naples to become a student at the Conservatorio dei Poveri di Gesù Cristo. His first opera, Astarto, was written in Rome in 1739. His best known work, Merope, was also composed there in 1743. In 1746 he went to London where he was in charge of the opera at the King's Theatre for a season. However he was not successful and apparently soon left, eventually finding his way back to Turin for which he produced a Didone abbandonata in 1750, and Rome where his Sesostri re d'Egitto was a considerable success in 1751. He died suddenly in May 1751 in circumstances that have never been explained. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
