Synopsis and more information
At the start of the opera, Giustino is asleep, dreaming of the glory and power the goddess Fortune has promised him. Giustino's first contact with royalty soon comes, when he saves the Emperor's sister from a bear. Later Giustino once again shows his worth, this time saving Empress Arianna from a sea monster.
Finally, misunderstandings, jealousy and greed turn against Giustino, but love and the rule of the righteous ultimately triumph.
