At Christmas 1718, the imperial governor of Mantua, Philip of Hesse-Darmstadt, announced his planned marriage. In a great hurry, his court conductor Antonio Vivaldi had to
deliver a representative work for the celebrations. Vivaldi is said to have finished his homage opera Tito Manlio in just five days . Although the wedding never took place, the opera was premiered at the Teatro Arciducale in Mantua
a success for Vivaldi. The plot takes up a recorded event in Roman history in the third century BC. After a battle against the Latins, Consul Titus Manlius sentenced his own son to death for insubordination and had him executed. In Vivaldi's opera, Tito Manlio also defends Rome against attacks from the surrounding area. The Latins may serve in the Roman legions,
but do not enjoy co-determination rights. But the fronts between the camps are confusing. Because even the consul's children have amorous relationships with enemies. His own son Manlius is engaged to a Latin woman. Against the orders of the Senate, Manlius the Younger kills an opposing leader. The consul furiously condemns his son to death by the hatchet, strictly according to the law ...
