The seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries were an exciting time in Italian music, and this collection of essays by leading European, British, and American musicologists seeks to consolidate the recent growth of interest in the field, with discussions of leading composers (including Monteverdi, Vivaldi, and Handel), theatrical and secular vocal music, and iconography.
