Masterpiece week Monteverdi

wo 18 – za 21 okt 2017

Wed 18 Oct - Sat 21 Oct 2017

composed in 1610 in Mantua
for 10 voices and a variety of instruments
virtuosic interplay of voices and instruments, brimming with variety
moving solos that touch the heart
Monteverdi transforms an ‘old-fashioned’ style into the most modern music
dedicated to Pope Paul V with the (unsuccessful) aim of securing future employment
a work full of quotes, including hits, such as the opening of Orfeo and the hymn Ave maris stella
