Written in 1643 for the Venetian carnival season, Claudio Monteverdi’s last work, The Coronation of Poppea, is a cautionary tale about the consequences of ambition. This week, the DePauw University School of Music will present Raymond Leppard’s sumptuous edition of this early Italian opera in four performances, February 5-8, in Moore Theatre at the Green Center for the Performing Arts.
