How sweet life could be at the Scottish court! The king’s daughter, Ginevra, and Prince Ariodante love each other. Their marriage is soon to be celebrated. But this is without taking into account Polinesso’s diabolical plan. Thirsting for desire and power, he accuses the young woman of infidelity to tarnish her reputation and eliminate his rival.
