1600–1699:
- 1607: l'orfeo by claudio monteverdi - this is widely regarded as the first operatic masterwork.
- 1640: il ritorno d'ulisse in patria by claudio monteverdi - monteverdi's first opera for venice, based on homer's odyssey, displays the composer's mastery of portrayal of genuine individuals as opposed to stereotypes.
- 1642: l'incoronazione di poppea by claudio monteverdi - monteverdi's last opera, composed for a venetian audience, is often performed today. its venetian context helps to explain the complete absence of the moralizing tone often associated with opera of this time.
- 1644: ormindo by francesco cavalli - one of the first of cavalli's operas to be revived in the 20th century, ormindo is considered one of his more attractive works....
