Peter Van Heyghen & Kris Verhelst / Passaggi et affetti

In around 1600, Italian waters are in flux: the Renaissance is ebbing and the early Baroque is on the rise. To achieve maximum expressiveness, composers employ every possible technique and style: familiar, fresh, centuries-old traditions and the latest fashion trends. Performers become co-composers and contribute their own share of expression and virtuosity. Vibrant music from a period that is guaranteed to fascinate and surprise!
