Arminio (HWV 36) is an opera composed by Georg Friedrich Händel.
Together with Giustino and Berenice, Arminio is one of three operas Händel wrote within a period of half a year in 1736. He began with the composition of Giustino on August 14 1736, followed by that of Arminio on 15. September. Having finished Arminio he resumed work on Giustino, which he finished on 20 October. In Mid-December, he went on to compose Berenice.
Arminio was performed for the first time at the Covent Garden Theatre on 12 January 1737, earlier than Giustino. It only saw five performances, the last one on 12th February.
The first modern performance took place on 23 February 1935 in Leipzig in a German language version by Max Seiffert and Hans Joachim Moser.

Sosarme, re di Media (Sosarmes, King of Media) is an opera by George Frideric Handel. Composed in 1732, the original setting of Portugal was changed to Sardis in Lydia. It was revived in 1734 with arias from Riccardo Primo. The first revival since 1734 was in 1970 at Abingdon, UK.[1]

Partenope is an opera by George Frideric Handel composed in 1730. It was Handel's first comic opera which broke away from the Opera Seria tradition. The Royal Academy of Music rejected the work because of its frivolous nature, with relatively few extended arias and more recitative.

Tolomeo, re di Egitto (Ptolemy, King of Egypt) (HWV 25) is an opera in three acts by George Frideric Handel to an Italian text by Nicola Francesco Haym, adapted from Carlo Sigismondo Capece's Tolomeo et Alessandro. It was Handel's 13th and last opera for the Royal Academy of Music. It was first performed at the King's Theatre, London on 30 April 1728 and revived with revisions on 19 May 1730 and 2 January 1733. The first modern production was by Fritz Lehmann at Göttingen on 19 June 1938.

Admeto, re di Tessaglia (Admetus, King of Thessaly) is a three-act opera with music composed by George Frideric Handel to an Italian-language libretto prepared by Nicola Haym. The story is partly based on Euripedes' Alcestis. The opera's first performance was at the Haymarket Theatre in London on 31 January 1727. The original cast included Faustina Bordoni as Alcestis and Francesca Cuzzoni as Antigona, as Admeto was the second of the five operas that Handel composed to feature specifically these two prime donne of the day. The opera received 19 performances in its first season, and over the time from September 1727 to January 1732, received 16 additional performances. Admeto was revived in 1754 and received 5 additional performances. The last, 6 April 1754, proved to be the last opera performance that Handel saw of his own operas in his lifetime.

Il pastor fido is an opera in three acts by George Frideric Handel. It was set to a libretto by Giacomo Rossi based on the famed and widely familiar pastoral poem of the same name by Giovanni Battista Guarini.
It was composed in 1712 and first performed in the same year. The opera opened to a largely hostile reception, probably due to disappointment after the success of Rinaldo: one diarist noted critically that "the scene represented only the Country of Arcadia; the Habits [costumes] were old – the Opera short". The roles of Mirtillo and Silvio were originally sung by the castratos Valeriano Pellegrini and Valentino Urbani. The overture is in six movements and is long for its time: it is thought that it may have been originally composed as an unrelated orchestral suite.

While John sat in the suburbs getting stoned to numb the pain of his imminent divorce, bachelor Paul was feeding his head by immersion in the London avant-garde.
