In the autumn of 1725, when France celebrated the marriage of Louis XV with Marie Leszczynska, the French ambassador in Venice commissioned Vivaldi to compose a serenata in honour of the young royal couple. This occasion led to a magnificent work, carried by two allegorical figures: Imeneo, the god of marriage, and Gloria, the radiant embodiment of French grandeur. The two alternately raise their voices, answer each other, compete gracefully in virtuosity - and ultimately unite in a glorious final duet that seals their tribute in perfect harmony. Logan Lopez Gonzalez and Nicolo Balducci express these roles with elegance and subtlety, allowing Vivaldi's music to shine. In the richness of his oeuvre, this short but impressive work stands out for its diplomatic finesse and inspired brilliance - a truly brilliant musical gift to the French court.
