Monteverdi’s 'amoral' opera lays bare the fatal combination of love, lust and ambition in the court of the psychopathic Nero, as he raises his beautiful lover Poppea to the throne. Baroque specialist Emmanuelle Haïm realises the ravishing score which famously culminates in one of opera’s most ecstatic love duets.
