Poppea
Regent Theatre, Stoke-on-Trent
Thu, 2nd December 2010 - Thu, 2nd December 2010
From £16.00*L’incoronazione di Poppea is Claudio Monteverdi’s (1567-1643) last opera. It was premiered at Teatro di Giovanni e Paolo in Venice in 1642 and was given its first professional production at Glyndebourne in 1962. The plot, by librettist Busenello, is suggested in the prologue with the apparent triumph of Love over Virtue and Fortune. Love, reflected through Nerone’s blind infatuation for the amoral and relentlessly ambitious Poppea, is powerfully illustrated in one of the most beautiful love duets ever written at the conclusion of this masterpiece.
