Monteverdi
Claudio Giovanni Antonio Monteverdi (baptized 15 May 1567 – 29 November 1643) was an Italian composer, choirmaster and string player. 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 Baroque periods of music history. Born in Cremona, where he undertook his first musical studies and compositions, Monteverdi developed his career first at the court of Mantua () and then until his death in the Republic of Venice where he was ''maestro di cappella'' at the basilica of San Marco. His surviving letters give insight into the life of a professional musician in Italy of the period, including problems of income, patronage and politics. Much of Monteverdi's output, including many stage works, has been lost. His surviving music includes nine books of madrigals, large-scale religious works, such as his ''Vespro della Beata Vergine'' (''Vespers for the Blessed Virgin'') of ...

Cappella Della Pietà De' Turchini
Cappella Neapolitana is an early music ensemble based in Naples and dedicated to the recovery of Neapolitan musical heritage, primarily from the baroque era. The Cappella Neapolitana was founded in 2016 by the musicologist and conductor Antonio Florio ( it), who studied under Nino Rota, as well as participating in events at the church Chiesa della Pietà dei Turchini. The name of church, conservatory, and now the modern cappella and music centre go back to the turquoise (Italian "turchino") shirts worn by the original children of the institute. The association between church, conservatory, and commercial opera productions goes back to the roots of the original Pietà de' Turchini, and the days when Leonardo Leo used his students from the Conservatorio Pietà de' Turchini as chorus singers in his opera productions. Florio's work in recovering music which has lain unperformed for three centuries often involves reconstructing lost parts, or "discreetly recomposing" missing portions ...
