An educational programme featuring early music. Sweet memories and grief; recordings from Spanish, French and Italian love songs and lamentations.
In this episode you can listen to songs from the periods of the Renaissance and the early Baroque, in which love is at the centre.
But especially the theme of the unrequited love, the absent lover or the impossible love, like between a god and a nymph. The melancholy predominates.
