Line-cut of a contemporary manuscript copy. Andromeda liberata, a Venetian pasticcio-serenata based on a libretto by Vincenzo Cassani (c.1677-c.1736), is a genre distinct from opera and the chamber cantata, rarely acted in costume in a purpose-built theater with scenery, and performed by singers reading from music in a stationary position in improvised surroundings.
