Stunning concert. How rare to get a chance to see a hear how this glorious music was probably performed at one of the larger European Courts around 1600. Wonderful stuff

Waking up listeners - Capriccio Stravagante is world-renowned for their memorable interpretations of Renaissance and Baroque music. Founded in 1986 by Skip Sempé, the ensemble of three to seventy performers incorporates Capriccio Stravagante, the Capriccio Stravagante Renaissance Orchestra and Capriccio Stravagante Les 24 Violons. By the mid 1990s, the ensemble had built up an extensive discography for which they received international acclaim and had performed in major concert halls and festivals worldwide. Nonchalance & Power - The ensembles seek a musical aesthetic whose values have been nearly lost to contemporary musical life. Unlike many other early music ensembles, they adhere to traditional principles of articulation, rhetoric, scholarship, imagination and talent to break down conventions that have little to do with historical practice, particularly those originating in twentieth-century ‘Baroque’ performance practices. Capriccio Stravagante has recorded extensively for the Paradizo, Deutsche Harmonia Mundi, Astrée, Alpha and Teldec labels. Man-made beauty - The Capriccio Stravagante Renaissance Orchestra offers virtuoso performers on a highly distinctive musical instrumentarium that includes violins, viols, recorders, cornetti, sackbuts, krummhorns, shawms, lutes, harps, harpsichords, virginals, organs, and percussion. Derived from the instrumental virtuosity that sixteenth-century music demanded, their playing techniques are completely unknown to classically trained instrumentalists and mainstream audiences today. The ensemble is the largest and most luxurious gathering yet assembled for the performance of masterpieces from this Golden Age of musical creativity. Awards & Rewards - Capriccio Stravagante’s exceptional chamber ensemble playing has inspired three generations of musicians, many of whom have gone on to enjoy international careers. The Capriccio Stravagante Prize was created by Skip Sempé in 1997, and served to encourage numerous musicians in their early careers. It is particularly touching that many of those musicians have now become an integral part of Capriccio Stravagante’s activities. Sempé receives lasting inspiration from the key members of these renewed generations.

I can’t thank you enough for posting this music.

Such wonderful, original instruments. Such talented, passionate musicians reaching so deeply into their souls.

[@scottschwartz5106]

Wonderful! So much Renaissance music today is done with tiny consorts of 4 or 5 players, robbing much of the color and verve of this music, often associated with courts where they could afford to hire a good number of skilled musicians. The ornamenting here is fantastic too.

Maravilhoso, digno de intensos aplausos e elogios sem fim!

[@erroll9621]

Stunnung concert, thank you for sharing! A small note about the title: "sinfoniae instrumentalia" is grammatically incorrect Latin. Sinfoniae is feminine, instrumentalia is the neuter form of the adjective instrumentalis; it should actually be "sinfoniae instrumentales."
