For a rolecall of the great who have lived and worked in Mantua try this lot: Pisanello, Tiziano, Fetti, Correggio, Rubens, Mantegna, Bartolino da Novara, Fancelli, Bibiena, Teofilo Folengo, Castilgione. A special mention goes to Claudio Monteverde who was the court musician of the Gonzagas who more than anyone transformed the city. Monteverde is credited with inventing the melodrama.
