In 1618, a group of Spanish conspirators unsuccessfully planned a hostile takeover of Venice. The French writer and philosopher Simone Weil addressed the event in her 1955 tragedy *Venise sauvée* (Venice Saved).
Inspired by this, the musicians present vocal and instrumental works by the leading composers of the time, such as Claudio Monteverdi, Francesco Cavalli, and Giovanni Gabrieli.
