Monteverdi Festival
The Monteverdi Festival is the international festival named after the composer Claudio Monteverdi, the father of Italian opera, in the city where he was born, Cremona. For more than forty years, the Monteverdi Festival has set itself the goal of disseminating the work of Claudio Monteverdi and, more generally, the musical repertoire (sacred and secular) of the 16th and 17th centuries in Italy and throughout the world. It does so by recovering the ancient musical heritage, re-proposing it through correct performance and interpretation practices, and supporting it with adequate musicological and organological research.
Claudio Monteverdi is universally known as one of the greatest innovators in the history of music and inventor of the most famous Italian genre in the world: opera. The Monteverdi Festival, promoted by the Ponchielli Theatre Foundation in Cremona, under the artistic direction of Andrea Cigni, involves the best internationally recognised artists and emerging young talents in its productions.
