Book Synopsis Monteverdi and the Marvellous by : Roseen Giles
Book excerpt: Integrating musical and poetic analysis, this book sheds new light on the experience of listening to Monteverdi's path-breaking madrigals. The music of this pivotal figure reveals how composers and performers at the turn of the seventeenth century not only responded to but themselves influenced experiments in language.
