We are in the process of preparing a comprehensive listening guide for classical music. Please return again soon. Some forthcoming performances of Orfeo in Australia:
 |
Monteverdi's L'Orfeo
|
 In
the early 17th century, Claudio
Monteverdi was one of of a handful of Italian composers pioneering a new
form of music drama which we know now as opera. His
L'Orfeo is one of the earliest
operas ever written and , in White Hat's opinion, still one of the best. It
calls on the full palette of the Renaissance orchestra as well as the virtuoso
vocal techniques of the time. This performance presents one of the rare
opportunities to hear it in Australia performed with period instruments. Markus
Brutscher fro will perform m Germany) Orfeo with international and
Australian guest artists and the
Australian
Brandenburg Orchestra (Artistic Director and conductor Paul Dyer)
