Barbara Strozzi and her Opus: The Excellent Women of Baroque Music
Beth Glixon’s archival research in Venice centers on seventeenth- and eighteenth-century opera theaters and musicians. She has published studies on the composers Francesco Cavalli, Francesco Lucio, Barbara Strozzi, and Antonio Vivaldi, as well as on several of prominent prima donnas active in mid-seventeenth-century Venice. She and her husband, Jonathan E. Glixon, are the authors of Inventing the Business of Opera: The Impresario and His World in Seventeenth-Century Venice (2005), as well as articles on Venetian opera. They are joint editors (with Nicola Badolato and Michael Burden) of Francesco Cavalli’s Erismena for the new Cavalli edition published by Bärenreiter (2018).
Although Beth enjoys finding documents about anything relating to music or art in Venice, she especially loves creating portraits of men and women of the Seicento who were previously only a name with nothing attached to it. She has written about a number of Roman women who became stars on the Venetian stage: Silvia Manni, Caterina Porri, and Giulia Masotti. She has also brought to life the Venetian Vittoria Tarquini, one of Grand Prince Ferdinando de’ Medici’s favorite singers, who had been known previously chiefly as a possible paramour of George Frideric Handel.
Beth has taught both research methods in music and the history of opera as an adjunct at the University of Kentucky. She and her husband were recently named honorary members of the Society for Seventeenth-Century Music.
Glixon’s initial articles on Barbara Strozzi were published in The Musical Quarterly in the late 1990s. She has been compiling a portrait of Giulio Strozzi’s early life over the last few years, at the same time working on the father and daughter’s joint publication, Barbara’s Opus 1.
