"The end of all good music is to affect the soul" ClaudioMonteverdi
Monteverdi developed and perfected something essential to later European music, namely the modern notion of melody.
Please join us as Dr. Brendan Cook takes us on a journey that highlights many of the remarkable achievements of the Venetian composer Claudio Monteverdi (1567-1643). Using examples drawn from Monteverdi's vocal music, Dr. Cook will explain how Monteverdi developed and perfected the modern notion of melody. In contrast to the music of earlier generations, the works of Monteverdi are examples of the compelling,
memorable melodic language we associate with the golden age of Italian music.
