The original three-act version of Beethoven’s opera, on Joseph Sonnleithner’s libretto after Jean-Nicolas Bouilly. Premiered at Vienna’s Theater an der Wien on 20 November 1805. Its overture is now known as Leonore No. 2. The 1806 revision reduced the opera to two acts; the final 1814 revision is known as Fidelio.
