Monteverdi Vespers of 1610
Kurtzman, Jeffrey. Published by Oxford, New York, NY. Copyright 2000. This is the only extensive study of the Monteverdi Vespers, vastly expanding on the author's 1978 set of essays on the subject, long since out-of-print. The volume studies the Vespers from the perspectives of its musical and liturgical origins and context, presents analytical essays on the music, and examines seventeenth-century performance practice as it pertains to the Vespers. Appendices include bibliographies and an analytical discography. Hardcover, 624 pp.
