Claudio Monteverdi: Claudio Giovanni Antonio Monteverdi (] ; 15 May 1567 (baptized) – 29 November 1643) was an Italian composer, string player and choirmaster.  A composer of both secular and sacred music, and a pioneer in the development of opera, he is considered a crucial transitional figure between the Renaissance and the Baroque periods of music history.

Giulio Cesare Monteverdi: Giulio Cesare Monteverdi (1573–1630/31) was an Italian composer and organist; he was the younger brother of Claudio Monteverdi.

Alessandro Striggio the Younger: Alessandro Striggio the Younger (ca. 1573 – 8 June 1630) was an Italian librettist, the son of the composer Alessandro Striggio.  The younger Striggio is most famous for his association with the composer Claudio Monteverdi.  He wrote the libretto for Monteverdi's first opera "Orfeo" (1607), a landmark in the history of the genre, as well as the "ballo" (sung ballet) "Tirsi e Clori".  Striggio worked at the court of Mantua and died of the plague while on a diplomatic mission to Venice.

L'Orfeo discography: These lists show the audio and visual recordings of the opera "L'Orfeo" by Claudio Monteverdi.  The opera was first performed in Mantua in 1607, at the court of Duke Vincenzo Gonzaga, and is one of the earliest of all operas.  The first recording of "L'Orfeo" was issued in 1939, a freely adapted version of Monteverdi's music edited by Giacomo Benvenuti, given by the orchestra of La Scala Milan conducted by Ferrucio Calusio.  In 1949 the Berlin Radio Orchestra under Helmut Koch recorded the complete opera, on long-playing records (LPs).  The advent of LP recordings was, as Harold Schonberg later wrote, an important factor in the postwar revival of interest in Renaissance and Baroque music, and from the mid-1950s recordings of "L'Orfeo" have been issued on many labels.  Koch's landmark version was reissued in 1962, when it was compared unfavourably with others that had by then been issued.  The 1969 recording by Nicholas Harnoncourt and the Vienna Concentus Musicus, using Harnoncourt's edition based on period instruments, was praised for "making Monteverdi's music sound something like the way he imagined".  In 1981 Siegfried Heinrich, with the Early Music Studio of the Hesse Chamber Orchestra, recorded a version which re-created the original Striggio libretto ending, adding music from Monteverdi's 1616 ballet "Tirsi e Clori" for the Bacchante scenes.  Among more recent recordings, that of Emmanuelle Haïm has been praised for its dramatic effect.  The 21st century has seen the issue of an increasing number of recordings on DVD.

A Child of Our Time: A Child of Our Time is a secular oratorio by the British composer Michael Tippett (190598), who also wrote the libretto.  Composed between 1939 and 1941, it was first performed at the Adelphi Theatre, London, on 19 March 1944.  The work was inspired by events that affected Tippett profoundly: the assassination in 1938 of a German diplomat by a young Jewish refugee, and the Nazi government's reaction in the form of a violent pogrom against its Jewish population—called Kristallnacht.  Tippett's oratorio deals with these incidents in the context of the experiences of oppressed people generally, and carries a strongly pacifist message of ultimate understanding and reconciliation.  The text's recurrent themes of shadow and light reflect the Jungian psychoanalysis which Tippett underwent in the years immediately before writing the work.
