This is the first collection of Claudio Monteverdi's madrigal and
song texts published in parallel Italian and English versions.
Denis Steven's unique anthology ranges across four centuries of
verse for music. More than thirty poets, old and new, famous and
obscure, are represented here, many for the first time in English.
Enthusiasts and scholars of the music and its period will be
extremely interested in finding out what the poems Monteverdi set
to music really mean. The keys Stevens uses in his translations
come from a lifetime's work devoted to Monteverdi and his
contemporaries.
