Apeiron with Oriana Chorale
The Madrigals of early-baroque composer Claudio Monteverdi capture the emotional range of the human condition with fiery fervour and sublime tenderness. His eighth book of madrigals contains some of his finest writing for voices and instruments. In this concert we are joined by Canberra ensemble Apeiron Baroque to bring you a selection of these works, alongside others from Monteverdi's contemporaries.
