Overview

De' Successi Di Erminia presents five intermedi drawn from Torquato Tasso's epic poem, ""Gerusalemme Liberata."" Published in 1615, this work by Tobia de Ferrari offers a fascinating glimpse into the theatrical and musical tastes of the early 17th century. These intermedi, or intermezzi, were short, often allegorical or mythological, entertainments performed between the acts of a play. This particular collection focuses on episodes related to the character of Erminia from Tasso's celebrated poem. This historical work provides valuable insight into the performance practices, musical settings, and dramatic interpretations of Tasso's masterpiece during the Renaissance.
