Description
Claudio Monteverdi was the first important composer of opera. This work examines the composer's celebrated final works - "Il ritorno d'Ulisse" and "L'incoronazione di Poppea". It casts light on the conflict between a world of emotional propriety and restraint and one of hedonistic abandon.
