Continuo Connect — Concert // Concerto Soave

Frescobaldi’s Arie musicali, published in the 1630s but less well-known than his famous keyboard pieces, are peaks of the rich vocal landscape of the early 17th century. In this exploration solos and duets are intertwined with instrumental pieces, stern meditations with lively balletti, and amorous complaints with variations of a thousand colours to paint a vibrant and colourful picture of Italy at the beginning of the Baroque.
