Staging 'Euridice' by Tim Carter

This is the first comprehensive account of the creation and staging of the earliest surviving complete 'opera', Euridice, during the festivities celebrating the marriage of Maria de' Medici and King Henri IV of France in 1600. It will prove invaluable for anyone interested in Renaissance music, theatre, and their contexts.
