Idomeneo, re di Creta

On his return home from the Trojan War, Idomeneo, King of Crete, is caught with his ship in a violent storm. Amid the turbulent waves and looming cliffs, he makes a terrible vow to Neptune, the god of the sea: if he and his men are spared, he will sacrifice the first person he encounters on dry land. When Idomeneo washes up on a beach in Crete and lays eyes on his own child, Idamante, he finds himself plunged in a veritable nightmare.
