Renaissance and Baroque Stories 3: The Blind Genius

Before music became a practice in the homes of connoisseurs and skilled amateurs during the 18th century, it occupied a more exclusive domain. In the Renaissance and Baroque, sounds of beauty, elevation and piety were created at enlightened courts and churches. The ANAM musicians armoured with modern instruments and awareness of all the music created ever since, explore places such as Elizabethan England and papal Rome to bring the music of these amazing centuries to life again.
