Ariana (name)
Ariana is a feminine given name, popular in many languages. Arianna and Ariane are the two most common variations. Etymology The name ''Ariana'' may be used following several possible following origins. The name Arianna is the Latinized form of the Ancient greek name Ariadne ( el, Ἀριάδνη; la, Ariadna; "most holy", Cretan Greek ''αρι'' ri"most" and ''αδνος'' dnos"holy"), the daughter of Minos, King of Crete, and his queen Pasiphaë, daughter of Helios, the Sun-titan, from Greek mythology. Ariana, a term in classical history, from Latin ''Arianus'', ''Ariana'', from Greek ''Arianē'', ''Areianē'', names applied in classical times to the eastern part of ancient Iran and to its inhabitants. Ancient Iranians used the name in reference to themselves (Old Persian ''ariya-''), hence Iran. Ultimately from Sanskrit ''arya-'' "compatriot;" in later language "noble, of good family.", was a general geographical term used by some Greek and Roman authors of antiquity for an ...

L'Arianna
' ( SV 291, ''Ariadne'') is the lost second opera by Italian composer Claudio Monteverdi. One of the earliest operas in general, it was composed in 1607–1608 and first performed on 28 May 1608, as part of the musical festivities for a royal wedding at the court of Duke Vincenzo Gonzaga in Mantua. All the music is lost apart from the extended recitative known as "" ("Ariadne's Lament"). The libretto, which survives complete, was written in eight scenes by Ottavio Rinuccini, who used Ovid's '' Heroides'' and other classical sources to relate the story of Ariadne's abandonment by Theseus on the island of Naxos and her subsequent elevation as bride to the god Bacchus. The opera was composed under severe pressure of time; the composer later said that the effort of creating it almost killed him. The initial performance, produced with lavish and innovative special effects, was highly praised, and the work was equally well received in Venice when it was revived under the composer' ...

Arianna (Goehr)
''Arianna'' is an opera in eight scenes by the British composer Alexander Goehr, premiered at the Royal Opera House, London, in 1995. It is set to the libretto (in Italian), by Ottavio Rinuccini, used by Claudio Monteverdi in his 1608 opera, ''L'Arianna''. The opera is Goehr's op. 58. Background Although Rinuccini's libretto survives, the greater part of Monteverdi's music for the opera, originally performed in Mantua in 1608, has been lost. All that remains is '' Arianna's lament'', a solo aria which Monteverdi published separately in 1623. Goehr sets most (but not all) of the original libretto, (which is based on the classical story of Ariadne and Theseus from Ovid's ''Heroides''), preserving the lament but interspersing it with choral episodes. The orchestration is contemporary, including contrabassoon, saxophone, Akai sampler and electric guitar, as is the harmonic language. Roles Reception The composer wrote in the programme notes of the premiere 'It was surely an act ...
