"Che fiero costume" is a satirical Baroque aria that explores the tyrannical and agonizing nature of Cupid, depicting how love forces a heart to worship a cruel, blind deity despite the pain it brings. Originally written for the 1678 opera Eteocle e Polinice, the song highlights Giovanni Legrenzi's skill in blending playful, upbeat rhythms with dramatic lyrical lamentation.
