The Coronation of Poppea; Organist Craig Cramer

 

The Baroque opera The Coronation of Poppea is a bit of a musical mystery. Attributed to Claudio Monteverdi, it's more of a pastiche from known and unknown composers. Millikin University will present the opera this weekend, and I'll talk with music director Dan Carberg on the Thursday edition of "Live and Local." And we'll meet organist Craig Cramer, who will play in Champaign Sunday night.
