Vibrant Baroque arias with a divine voice

Delving into a century of the Baroque repertoire, we witness the birth of Venus and experience her bittersweet love affair with Adonis, who is only allowed to stay by her side from spring until autumn. When Paris chooses Venus as the most beautiful goddess, she earns the eternal hatred of Juno and Minerva. And it's not just Venus who has a colourful life, so does her son Cupid who is more of a rascal than an angel.
