About This Song

About "Monteverdi: L'Incoronazione di Poppea, SV 308, Act 3: "Pur ti miro" (Poppea, Nerone)" by Arleen Augér

Monteverdi's final duet: two voices circling like moths around a flame. Augér and her Nerone trade phrases of sensual surrender, the cadence a slow dissolve—power and desire melting into one another, exquisitely unresolved.
