Musica Maestrale makes their SoHIP debut with a program of music highlighting the charming courtly songs of 17th-century France.Dating from the reigns of the French kings Louis XIII (“the Just”) and XIV (“the Sun King”), these pieces were primarily meant for private consumption by the nobility, and they display a tender, intimate side of early- to mid-Baroque music.
Airs by Moulinié, Lambert, Guedron and their contemporaries, as well as instrumental solos by Ballard, de Visée, and others express sentiments of loss, longing, and heartbreak—still very relatable subjects to us today, who are separated from the original intended audience through time and social status.
Musica Maestrale: Barbara Allen Hill, soprano, Dan Meyers, recorders, Renaissance flute, Hideki Yamaya, Renaissance lute, theorbo
