Il ritorno d'Ulisse in patria -  (Le retour d'Ulysse dans sa patrie)

Florence

Italie

A pioneer in the development of opera, Claudio Monteverdi took vocal music beyond Renaissance polyphony into an era when genuine feelings and emotions could be expressed. Il ritorno d’Ulisse in patria is part of a late flourish in Monteverdi’s illustrious career, and is considered the most tender and moving of his operas. His hero Ulysses is forced to undergo cruel trials, adversity, betrayal and deception before he can be reunited with his beloved Queen Penelope and recover his kingdom.
This acclaimed production is directed by renowned early music specialist Ottavio Dantone, who considers Il ritorno di Ulisse in patria
