Early Delights

sun 30 jul 2017 16:00 hour

A Sunday hour with early music goodies. Today a summery trip to Ireland with Jordi Savall and the ensembles eX, The Harp Consort, and Les Musiciens de Saint Julien.

Many Irish songs and melodies were popular in England in during the 16th and 17th century. A number of them have been included in the known music and dance books The English Dancing Master and Fitzwilliam Virginals Book. Many musicians today have arranged and performed Irish tunes, so we are able to imagine how Irish music must have sounded back then.
