: Composer of the Week: Monteverdi
With Donald Macleod.2: Opera
Monteverdi started writing dramatic works early in his career at the opulent court of the Gonzaga family in Mantua. He made an impressive operatic debut with Orfeo in 1607 and quickly followed this up with another full-length opera, Ariadne. By the time Monteverdi had moved to take up an appointment at the basilica of St Mark's in Venice, opera was firmly established as a popular entertainment in Italy. In his seventies, Monteverdi returned to the genre with an opera which displays all his dramatic talents, II Ritornod Ulisse.

About this project
This site contains the BBC listings information which the BBC printed in Radio Times between 1923 and 2009. You can search the site for BBC programmes, people, dates and Radio Times editions.
We hope it helps you find information about that long forgotten BBC programme, research a particular person or browse your own involvement with the BBC.
Through the listings, you will also be able to use the Genome search function to find thousands of radio and TV programmes that are already available to view or listen to on the BBC website.
There are more than 5 million programme listings in Genome. This is a historical record of the planned output and the BBC services of any given time. It should be viewed in this context and with the understanding that it reflects the attitudes and standards of its time - not those of today.
To read scans of the Radio Times magazines from the 1920s, 30s, 40s and 50s, you can navigate by issue.
