The text of Lucio Silla was revised under Metastasio’s supervision sufficiently that Mozart could not fit his recitatives to it, and had to start again.
Lucio Silla received a mixed reception at its first performance, but proved popular enough with the Milanese audiences (many of whom were Austrian, or at least would-be Austrian, and in tune with Mozart’s expressive northern musical language) that the work was repeated no fewer than 25 times during the Carnival season.
Though Mozart occasionally borrowed arias from Lucio Silla for his concert performances in later years, the opera was not revived during his lifetime, and remained unheard again until 1955, when it was produced in Dresden.

This paper examines two of these libretti: Silla by Giacomo Rossi, produced in London in 1713 with music by G.F. Handel, and Lucio Silla by Giovanni de Gamerra, produced in Milan in 1772 with music by the adolescent Mozart.
Rossi and Handel's Silla was performed for (and perhaps paid for by) the Duc d'Aumont, French ambassador extraordinaire, newly arrived in London.
In contrast, Gamerra's Lucio Silla begins with a very brief dedication which asserts the approval of the text by Pietro Metastasio, the 18th century Italian poet who had tried to bring Aristotelian perfection to his texts.
