Handel’s Ariodante is a story of royalty, love, intrigue and deceit set in the medieval Scottish highlands. Needing a male successor to the throne, the King of Scotland searches for a husband for his daughter princess Ginevra. After falling in love, Ginevra and the knight Ariodante are granted permission to wed but their plans are quickly disrupted by the devious plot of Polinesso, Duke of Albany, who also aspires to the throne.
