Idoménée

Idoménée (English: Idomeneus) is an opera by the French composer André Campra.

It takes the form of a tragédie en musique in a prologue and five acts.

Idoménée was first performed on 12 January 1712 by the Académie royale de musique at the Théâtre du Palais-Royal in Paris.

The libretto, by Antoine Danchet, is based on a stage play by Crébillon père.

It later formed the basis of Giambattista Varesco's libretto for Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's opera Idomeneo.
