About
Well known melodies of the epoch, as well as harmonic sequences such as Bergamasca, Ruggiero, Callinoe, Conde Claros and various Dumps were used by performers when they gathered to improvise together. Sometimes the music was dedicated to a well known personality of the court such as was surely the case with 'The Queenes Good Night', inspiring sweet dreams for Elizabeth.
For this recording, Marie Nishiyama and Rafael Bonavita have mixed the colours of harp and lute, with the characteristics of each instrument creating a dialogue of sound between the two. A dialogue that goes - as does this repertoire - beyond epochs and styles.
