Description on Youtube:
Claudio Monteverdi "Il Ritorno d'Ulisse in Patria" (freely adapted by Hans Werner Henze)
Salzburg Festival, 1985 (or 1987)
Penelope - Kathleen Kuhlmann
Ericlea - Martha Szirmay
conductor - Jeffrey Tate
My first Monteverdi opera... I know, I know, not very historically-informed, but enough to make me fall in love with this work. And I'm still moved by Kuhlmann's Penelope and Allen's Ulisse...
