Already her birth was celebrated by her parents with the performance of Pietro Torri's opera Amadis de Grecia. In her youth in Munich she received composition lessons from the renowned opera composers Giovanni Battista Ferrandini and Nicola Antonio Porpora. The festivities at her wedding to Frederick Christian of Saxony (1747) featured Christoph Willibald Gluck's opera Le nozze d'Ercole e d'Ebe and Johann Adolf Hasse's La Spartana generosa. In Dresden she continued her musical studies with Hasse and Nicola Porpora and felt particularly attached to the style of opera seria. She appeared as a singer and harpsichordist in performances of her own works in this genre as well as in numerous performances at court. In 1747 she was admitted to the Accademia dell'Arcadia in Rome, an internationally active literary academy and institution for the reform of opera.[1] The members interacted with each other without regard to their class distinctions and, in the spirit of a simple, natural country life, adopted shepherd's names (pseudonyms) for this purpose. Maria Antonia received the name Ermelinda Talea Pastorella Arcadia (ETPA).
