Joseph Myslivecek was a teacher and friend of Mozart. He was a talented and very popular composer in his time, but sadly died too young of syphilis in Rome in 1781.
Medonte was his last opera, and the recording does it justice, the music is very agreeable, but it also evinces that Mozart belonged to another galaxy.

whenever I listen to any other composer from the Classical era (Haydn excepting, and even he in some repertoire), this concept is re-inforced in my mind.
