L’Eraclito Amoroso

L’Eraclito amoroso is an exploration of an aria written by Italian singer, poet and composer Barbara Strozzi (1619-1677). Strozzi was said to be the most prolific composer (male or female) of printed secular music in Venice during the middle of the century. The film combines emotive classical singing, artful pole dancing, and inspired harpsichord to reimagine the piece through a new and fascinating lens.
