The sovereing himself had previously been an avid theatre-goer during his trip to Italy in 1625, when he met Monteverdi and other musicians. Through a close examination of various documents, the aim of this study is to propose an innovative comparison between the court theatre of Ladislas IV and contemporary early playhouses in Italy- from Rome to Venice - with reference to spectacles set to music.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
