Alceste an opera in three acts with text by R. de Calzabigi and a ballet by Noverre was first performed on 26 December 1767 at the Burgtheater in Vienna. It was revised by Gluck for a performance in Paris on 23 April 1776. "Gluck himself stressed the nature of Alceste as a `reform opera' by providing in the preface dedicating the printed score to the Grand Duke Leopold a discussion that goes far beyond the conventional. .That key document at once a manifesto and a defense . is a sharp repudiation of the theory practice and conventions of the old "opera seria" represented in its final phase by Metastasio and his favourite composer Hasse."
