This beautiful duet from Monteverdi's opera 'L'Incoronazione di Poppea is a wonderful addition to the CME Opera Workshop series. This duet, which occurs at the end of the opera, beautifully illustrates Monteverdi's ability to interweave the vocal lines in a harmonically intriguing way. Ann Small's edition features an ornamented return of the first section of the duet with stylistic trills that contain repeated articulation of the same notes, a favored ornament during this musical period. / 2 Parties Mixtes Et Piano
