Product Description
Recorded in the Church of San Carlo, Modena, September 2009.
This recording from La Venexiana unchains those passions stirred originally with the arrival of one of the most dazzling and revolutionary masterworks of Baroque musical theatre: Il Nerone, ossia Lincoronazione di Poppea. For a long time attributed only to the exceptional talents of Claudio Monteverdi, today this opera is considered additionally to be the result of the combined contributions of various composers over a period of time, among them being Francesco Cavalli, Benedetto Ferrari and Francesco Sacrati.Claudio Cavani, director of this opera, has won several awards for his interpretations of Monteverdi's music including two Gramophone awards. The last time La Venexiana recorded a Monteverdi opera (L'Orfeo) their production was voted by the UK magazine's critics as the winner in the Baroque Vocal category of the Gramophone awards.
