About

Considered by many as being the most attractive early music label in the world, both for its artistic coherence as for the artistry of its designs, Glossa here present a reference-quality performance from La Venexiana, presented in a stunningly-designed book format.

A collection of individual essays centring on Monteverdi's L'Orfeo cover the mythological roots, the composition's context and its performance today. The texts have been written by Stefano Russomano, Stefano Aresi and Alberto Bernabé, while Alessandro Striggio's libretto is accompanied by a new translation from Eduardo Schmid.   
 
"As in their previous Monteverdi editions, La Venexiana bring a dramatic delivery of the words and a uniquely Italian blend of solo voices to this glorious music, unrivalled on disc." The Sunday Times
 
Recorded at the San Carlo Church, Modena (Italy), from February 2nd to February 6th, 2006.
