About

Daniel Speer was a Stadtpfeifer (a ‘town piper’ - in fact a multi-instrumentalist with a repertoire dedicated in particular to functional music), and he was also a composer, music theorist, teacher, political commentator, writer, and one of the most astonishing - and mysterious - figures of musical Baroque.

In this programme, performed on period instruments, Capella Itineris explore Daniel Speer’s religious music, as well as his sonatas and a little-known aspect of his work: his quodlibets, which enable us not only to sample his humour and his taste for caricature, but also to discover the originality - not to say, extravagance - of his style.
