Description:
The fame of the "Lamento d'Arianna" from Claudio Monteverdi's opera "Arianna" from 1608 quickly spread among music lovers, which led to the composer publishing a five-part madrigal version in his 6th Madrigal Book as early as 1614 for domestic use, so to speak. In doing so, he drew on the melodic and harmonic substance of the original and above all highlighted the lyrical aspects of the dramatic text. To this day, this version is able to captivate performers and audiences alike with its combination of literary depth and emotionally expressive singing.
