The plot of L’incoronazione di Dario (1717) revolves around three rival claimants to the throne of Persia. The shrewd lord Dario, the conceited nobleman Oronte and the gung-ho soldier Arpago agree to lay their arms aside and instead compete to woo the late king Cyrus’s eligible but amusingly naive daughter Statira – whose considerably smarter younger sister Argene wants Dario (and the throne) for herself. Vivaldi’s choice of a mischievous libretto that was already 33 years old was probably obscured because the Venetian public were promised ‘many masks and sumptuous costumes’.
