Claudio Monteverdi is recognized as the towering figure of a critical transitional moment of Western music history. This title collects the 17 articles that contribute to one or more significant strands in Monteverdi studies.
Claudio Monteverdi is now recognized as the towering figure of a critical transitional moment of Western music history: relentless innovator in every genre within chamber, church and theatre music; self-proclaimed leader of a ''new dispensation'' between words and their musical expression; perhaps even ''Creator of Modern Music''. The 17 articles in this volume have been selected by Richard Wistreich to exemplify the best scholarship in English and because each, in retrospect, turns out to have been a ground-breaking contribution to one or more significant strands in Monteverdi studies. --from publisher description
