Gloire et Hymen

Valide

Commissioned in 1725 by the French Ambassador in Venice to commemorate the nuptials of Louis XV and the Polish princess Maria Leszczynska, the serenata Gloria e Imeneo contains some of Vivaldi’s finest music, alternating virtuosity with elegance, poignancy, and dramatic fervour. Hymen and Glory compete each other in celebrating the radiant future of the French monarchy, and in congratulating the young royal couple in the most extravagant style, to join in a grand finale. The inaugurating battle of the Festival will be fought by two ravishing Baroque heroines, Sonia Prina and Vivica Genaux, accompanied by Fabio Biondi’s exciting Europa Galante.
