| has gloss | eng: These lists show the audio and visual recordings of Il ritorno dUlisse in patria ("The Return of Ulysses to his Homeland") by Claudio Monteverdi. The opera was premièred in Venice in 1640, initially in five acts, and was then performed in Bologna before returning to Venice for the 1641–42 season. The music was subsequently lost; modern productions of the opera have been based on editions derived from the sole manuscript score, a three-act version discovered in Vienna in the 19th century. Performances were rare until the 1970s, when after stagings in Vienna and at Glyndebourne, both of which were recorded, the work entered the operatic mainstream. Since that date recordings have been issued regularly, in five-act, three-act and two-act versions. Recording history The first recording of the opera was issued in 1964, a version incorporating substantial cuts. |
