Vespro della Beata Vergine – C. Monteverdi
28 August
30 August
20 September
Claudio Monteverdi’s Vespers (1610) are so much more than an evening prayer service. The maestro of San Marco takes the traditional vespers formula – a combination of psalms, hymns and canticles – and transforms it into a musical spectacle of the highest order. Opera and liturgy, old and new, pious and sensual: everything collides and merges into one grandiose design.
The score breathes the space of the basilica in which Monteverdi designed the sound of the future, as if the graceful galleries, balconies and choir stalls inspired the sound architecture.
