Focusing on Monteverdi's impactful thirty-year tenure as Director of Music at St. Mark's in Venice, the book addresses misconceptions surrounding his vocal works, which were originally intended for solo voices rather than choirs. It critiques modern interpretations that misrepresent his music through unnecessary transpositions and highlights the need for a more authentic understanding of his compositions. By peeling away the layers of misinterpretation, the book aims to reveal the true essence of Monteverdi's artistry and contributions to music.
