Monteverdi’s long life is marked by three towns: his childhood and education in Cremona, his twenty-year service at the court of Vincenzo Gonzaga in Mantua, his position as Kapellmeister at St. Marc in Venice (position covered for over thirty years, until his death). The Coro Costanzo Porta, conducted by the refined and vital Antonio Greco, traces the stages of his life, intertwining Monteverdi’s music with the compositions of his teachers, colleagues, rivals and epigones.
