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.
