BEMF Orchestra Director Robert Mealy speaks with celebrated scholar and author Thomas Forrest Kelly, Morton B. Knafel Research Professor of Music at Harvard University, about Monteverdi's Orfeo. Join them for a tour of the palace of the Duke of Mantua-where Orfeo was first performed-and a discussion of the intricate beauty of this piece from the earliest days of opera as an art form.
