4 stars Electronic music in 1642.

Realizing that 2012 was a great year for this prog/electronic genre, to keep up the good news Geir Jenssenīs (aka BIOSPHERE), released "L'incoronazione di Poppea" an electronics meets Claude Monteverdiīs 1642 opera of the same name, comissioned project.

Not to scare non-opera lovers as myself, this is the kind of opera I will surely attend and sadly even consider it brief.

Resembling a sinking museum of gigantic white-blue sculptures alongside drowning womenīs laments, tainted by deep dramatic or subtle flowing melody lines into sometimes sweet others chaotic or simply raw musical environments, without subduing nor losing the grandeur of its operatic root.

Electronic/crossover experimentation at its best.

Bravo!! ****4.5 solid PA stars.
