Overview
Monteverdi’s Fifth Book of Madrigals, complete with the exquisite provoked conservative critics and inspired a new wave of composers to explore the expression of human emotions in their music. His radical departure from old ways was emulated in the 1950s by Astor Piazzolla, inventor of the revolutionary ‘nuevo tango’, and by María Grever, Mexico’s first successful female composer.
