Monteverdi's last opera is a masterpiece of political and sexual intrigue, as the seductive Roman aristocrat Poppea twists the Emperor Nero (Nerone) around her little finger. The bit of him she's really interested in is his crown, and in her single-minded determination to fulfil the opera's title she tramples a stream of victims underfoot - including her previous lover Ottone, the wisest of Nero's courtiers, the philosopher Seneca, and finally Nero's empress, Ottavia.
