Out of the Depths - Music from 17th Century Germany. Sacred and secular from 17th century Germany for soprano, 2 violins and continuo. Music by Schtz, Erlebach, Buxtehude, Rosenmller, Bernhard & Tunder
Join La Monica (Phoebe Jevtovic, soprano, Tekla Cunningham & Sue Feldman, violins, William Skeen, 'cello, and Jennifer Streeter, harpsichord) for this very special program.
Following the ruin of the Thirty Years War, there was a creative explosion in Germany, producing music characterized by cosmopolitan tastes and the flowing exchange of ideas over political boundaries. Many German musicians traveled to Italy and France to study with such masters as Monteverdi and Lully, and many foreign musicians were imported to German-speaking lands. The sheer beauty and depth of emotion of this music was the sound-world from which Bach would later emerge.
