In this episode, we discuss the upcoming Indiana University Opera production, The Coronation of Poppea, composed by Claudio Monteverdi for the Venetian premiere in 1643. Today, we have three guests who will help us to get closer to Monteverdi’s final opera. First, we have IU doctoral musicology student, Jackie Westerduin, who will be giving pre-opera lectures later this week. Next, we have internationally renowned director and choreographer Candace Evans, who is working with the IU Opera on this brand new production. And finally, we have Deepa Johnny, a master’s student in vocal performance who will be performing the role of Poppea on Friday, October 15th.
