Les fêtes de l’Hymen et de l’Amour

About the show

After Cupid and Hymen reconcile in the prologue, Osiris wins the Amazon queen Orthésie through peaceful gifts of dance and art. Canopus saves Memphis from sacrifice, reveals himself to her, and grants mercy to the people. In the final entrée, Aruéris establishes an arts festival where Orie wins the singing contest and becomes his bride.
