Paul HindemithAbout
Monteverdi’s Orfeo was premiered in 1607 and is the oldest opera still in the repertoire today. It fell into oblivion and it was only in 1927 that the first printed score was reprinted in facsimile edition. This lacked specificity in the instrumental parts.
In 1943 Hindemith published his thoroughly researched score. This public performance was recorded in 1954 in Vienna.
