In the organizer's words:

Agostino Steffani died in Frankfurt in 1728 while passing through and was buried in the imperial cathedral. Now, almost three centuries later, his work "Amor vien dal destino" can be heard for the first time at the Frankfurt Opera.

In contrasting arias, recitatives and duets, Steffani tells the story of how Aeneas and Turnus fight for Lavinia. Steffani was not only an esteemed composer - Telemann and Handel were influenced by his music - but also a diplomat and high-ranking clergyman. Discover Steffani's music, which captivates with its extraordinary instrumental and vocal colorfulness!
