Monteverdi tells the story of Orfeo, one of the most fantastical journeys in all opera, in music of sensuous beauty, urgency and immediacy. Jonathan Miller’s theatrical presentation, the second of two Monteverdi performances at the Town Hall, marks the 400th anniversary of the first production of the world’s first great opera. Philip Pickett’s colourful and dramatic performance with the New London onsort has been one of the most admired CDs of L’Orfeo in recent years.
