Profane music from all over Europe. The vibrant cultures surrounding the Mediterranean are beautifully captured by the German ensemble Sarband. This rich musical tradition is also reflected in the work of the Catalan group Capella de Ministrers by Carles Magraner, who musically retraced the steps of El Greco. Additionally, while Frescobaldi is renowned as an Italian winery, it is also the name of a composer/ancestor of the wine producers. We will conclude today’s broadcast with his canzoni.
