Claudio Monteverdi was publicly attacked for breaking the accepted rules of counterpoint. His answer was the seconda pratica, in which the words should command the harmony rather than serve it, a principle that helps explain why his madrigals, L’Orfeo and the Vespers still invite such radical reinterpretation.
