Summoned by the powerful Count Grimani, Carlo Goldoni witnesses the challenge between the mature Antonio Vivaldi and a young Baldassare Galuppi: the great poet was to be given the task of writing a libretto for the winner’s opera. In a nutshell, this is the plot of I duellanti, a performance of theatre and music commissioned by Teatro La Fenice and staged by the Venetian companies Pantakin and Woodstock Teatro: the dispute, which is almost like the finale one of today’s talent shows, takes place in public, amidst the festive, decadent atmosphere of an eighteenth-century Venice. The recited part, which also includes two masks of Commedia dell’Arte, is complemented by music inspired by that period and invented for the occasion by Paolo Furlani.
