Until that is, a man is shipwrecked on her shore and manages to thoroughly confuse her. Just now as her people are mobilizing against a mighty enemy! Pallavicino’s mercurial score is in no way inferior to the joyfully crazy storytelling of the libretto: hardly ever has the story of Amor’s power weakening both strong women and tough men been told so gorgeously. Christophe Rousset and Les Talens Lyriques act as guarantors for musical delectation and internationally renowned stage director Nicola Raab applies modern means to reviving baroque pictorial worlds.
