==Premiere cast==
==Synopsis==
''ll Sedecia, re di Gerusalemme'' recounts the fate of Zedekiah (Sedecia), king of Jerusalem. He is defeated by Nebukadhnezar (Nabucco), king of Babylon, who opposes him for his alliance with Egypt. He is killed after seeing his son Ismael (Ismaele) die, who intervened in his defence, and, his wife Anna who dies of grief. The protagonist is convinced that he was punished by God for his own idolatry.<ref name="Treccani"/>
==Performance history==
After its premiere in 1705 in Urbino, [[Filippo Ortensio Fabbri]] considerably reworked the original libretto upon which Alessandro Scarlatti founded his ''Il Sedecia, re di Gerusalemme''. In 1706 a new version premiered which differs from the first by the addition of five arias. This second version was the main source for the Milanese edition edited in 1962 by G. Guarrini. <ref name="Treccani"/>

In Sedecia the tragic story of the king of Jerusalem is represented: he, defeated by Nabucco, king of Babylon, who opposes him for his alliance with Egypt, will be killed after seeing his son (the child Ismeria) die, who intervened in his defense, and, following the great pain, his wife Anna. Despite a certain fixity of the characters and their destiny, the work reveals a not inconsiderable ability to represent the tragic nature of the events, especially in the figure of the protagonist, convinced that he was punished by God for his own idolatry.<ref name="Treccani"/>

However, the name of F. is essentially linked to the composition, in the same years, of two texts set to music by Alessandro Scarlatti. The first was the Sedecia king of Jerusalem (Urbino 1705), a five-voice oratory performed in Urbino and dedicated to the cardinal legate Sebastiano Antonio Tanari. A second draft of the work was drawn up and published in 1706: the score of the latter, which differs from the first for the addition of five arias, is located at the Casanatense Library in Rome (ms. 2566) and was the "main source" of the Milanese edition edited in 1962 by G. Guarrini ( Le Muse galanti , p. 51). It dates back to 1706 also the preparation and execution of the Performed by recited on the night of S . mo Christmas in the apostolic palace(Rome 1706), whose libretto is in Venice (Bibl. Of the Giorgio Cini Foundation, Fondo Rolandi ).<ref name="Treccani"/>
