Monteverdi in amore

Where there is love, there is conflict. Without conflict, the value of love can hardly reveal. From 17th century to nowadays, from Italy to Hong Kong, passion remains as music re-echoes. Countless secrets of lovers are embedded in madrigals.

In Monteverdi’s largest madrigal collection Book 8, the joy of mutual affection and the war of relationship politics co-exist.

SingFest is presenting the treasures of choral music, such as Hor che’l ciel e la terra, Lamento della ninfa, Altri canti di Marte, in collaboration with Early music ensemble and German theorboist Stefan Maass.

​

Monteverdi meets love

Only when there is love can there be contradictions, and only when there are contradictions can we understand the value of love. From the seventeenth century to the present, from Italy to Hong Kong, passion is still lingering like music, and countless love secrets in the world are collected in pastoral songs.

In the eighth volume, the largest of Monteverdi's "Idylls", there are both the joy of mutual affection and the wrestling of relationships. Famous Choral Festival will join hands with ancient orchestra and German Silber pianist Stefan Maass to present you with choral music treasures such as "The Wind of Heaven and Earth", "The Eulogy of the Goddess", "Others Praise the God of War", and think about love together. What is it.
