    • In 1734 the rival Opera of the Nobility performed an adaptation of Handel's Ottone, with many of Handel's former singers reprising their original roles. The castrato Senesino performed the title role, and the soprano Cuzzoni re-created the leading lady's role of Teofane. Farinelli was assigned the subsidiary part of Adelberto, which was transformed in character and enlarged (probably by the librettist Rolli and the composer Porpora). Five of Adelberto's seven arias were taken from other Handelian operas. See Winton Dean and Merrill J. Knapp, Handel's Operas: 1704-1726 (Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1987), 441

"Our opinion is that the great castrati had a complete castration and, consequently, could not have had any normal male sexual function. Stories about their sexual relationships with women must be viewed with skepticism. The lack of androgens that permitted them to have their infantile vocal cords and extraordinary voices also made them have an infantile penis, a lack of beard growth, and a grotesque-looking body characterized by a eunuchoid appearance and/or womanlike features, including breasts. All these results of pre-pubertal castration (and primary hypogonadism) are consistent with a lack of male sexual function. The notion that various castrati had natural sex lives with women is, in our judgment, a hoax" (33)
