About

The Full Monteverdi - A Film by John La Bouchardière featuring I Fagiolini (Royal Philharmonic Society Award winners 2006)

One of the most moving collections of Renaissance vocal music brought to life as a gritty contemporary film.

Claudio Monteverdi's Fourth Book of Madrigals (1603) explores differing emotional states of abandoned lovers through the most dramatic and amazingly modern music for vocal ensemble. The Full Monteverdi follows the simultaneous break-up of six couples from shocking revelation, vengeful anger and erotic longing for reconciliation, as an ensemble film. Vulnerable and disarming, it will draw you into its emotional journey and intensely moving portrait of contemporary love.

Music-theatre hit of the decade … bleak but brilliant” The Times
A miracle of human endeavour” The Daily Telegraph

Sung in Italian – optional English subtitles.
