Serse (Xerxes) by Händel, Sib 21 Set 2024, Minn (2024/2024), Immexxi minn Claudia Isabel Martin, Surmast Direttur Ivan Demidov, martini-Park, Augsburg, Germany

The Persian king Xerxes (ital. Serse) falls in love with Romilda, but she is in love with his brother Arsamene. Romilda’s sister Atalanta, in turn, has her eye on the king. The two pairs of siblings are caught up in confusion until finally Serse’s fiancée Amastre enters the scene. George Frideric Handel’s dramma per musica sparkles with irony and baroque liveliness.
