Have you ever wanted to study a study group or book club? What would you call it?
Yes! I remember an assignment I had in school on the history of opera, I was so overwhelmed because I had so much information, but this video makes it all seem so clear. Thank you very much!!
Glad it was helpful!
I recently listened to l'Orfeo (directed by Gardiner). I enjoyed it very much. I didn't know this opera very well. But it was a pleasant introduction.
Thank you for making this! I was assigned a deep dive presentation on the Florentine Camerata so this was super helpful and informative :))
That was great. Knowing the history of this art form makes watching a performance all the more enjoyable.
I always liked classical music,especially settings only for piano or even orchestra one’s,but never really got into opera,although my father loves it,I’ve been trying to start with l’orfeo but until I saw the clip featured in this video,I hadn’t had made any emotional connection to it,now I’m hooked,thank you!
So what was the period of multiple choruses? I seem to recall listening to a piece with four four-part choruses, singing at the same time.
