King Christian IV of Denmark reigned from 1588 until 1648 and boasted one of the finest musical courts in all of Europe. He sent his most talented and promising musicians to Italy to study the art of madrigal composition under the tutelage of the incomparable Giovanni Gabrieli, whereupon they returned to Denmark with the fruits of these labors; some of the finest three and five part madrigals of the period. We will play some of my favorite 3 part madrigals by Truid Aagesen, Hans Brachrogge, Hans Nielsen and Mogens Pedersøn.
For recorder players at the intermediate level—altos, tenors and basses.
