Orfeo is a Renaissance dramatic retelling in verse of the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice. Orpheus arrives at the gates of hell, plucking his lyre and pleading sorrowfully for his beloved Eurydice, while the guardians of the underworld confront him. It is worth hearing for its moving lament, poetic language and dramatic encounter with the realm of death.
