Opera in three acts, edited by Alan Curtis. This opera was first performed in Venice in 1666. It may with justice be considered to be the finest opera written between Monteverdi's 'Poppea' and the dramatic works of the mature Purcell. Having in 1983 presided over the first modern revival of 'Il Tito' in Innsbruck, the city of its original commissioning, Alan Curtis has now produced the first complete performing edition to be drawn from available sources.

Vocal Score for the Opera in Two Acts.Caritas' is in two acts, the first consisting of 12 short scenes, the second being a continuous scena. The overall form of the opera retains the architecture of Wesker's stage play, but alters the proportions, in order to create a musically dynamic form. While each scene of the first act is centred around a specific pitch, the second act is a Passacaglia, whose 'ground' is a Cantus Firmus, each repetition of which begins on a different note from those of its previous statements. These large-scale architectural features are both reflected in, and derived from, the musical material itself.

Operasangbogens idé er at præsentere en række af de mest kendte og sangbare arier, duetter og korsatser i en overskuelig og umiddelbar tilgængelig form for et bredt publikum.
Repertoiret spænder fra operaens begyndelse i 1600-tallet med Monteverdi og frem til første halvdel af det 20. århundrede med Gershwin.

Alle satser er forsynet med becifring, udarbejdet således, at at de ligger så tæt op ad originalsatserne som muligt. Hvor det er fundet hensigtsmæssigt bringes forspil, efterspil, mellemspil og udfyldninger i stiknodenotation.
