Verso Venezia
Program: Biscuits & Bach
Aired: Sunday, May 7, 2017 @ 7:00 am
Hosted by Rachel Stewart
When most of us think of Venetian music, we think of Vivaldi. But before Vivaldi, there were Venetian composers who were experimenting with Renaissance musical forms and laying the groundwork for the later Baroque achievements of the Red Priest and his contemporaries. The transition from the Renaissance canzona to the Baroque sonata is a significant result of this experimentation and an important event in music history. Three pre-Vivaldi Venetian composers made important contributions in this area: Giovanni Legrenzi, Dario Castello, and Tarquinio Merula. This week we’ll listen to some of their music when we feature a 2014 album from Montreal period instrument quartet Pallade Musica called, Verso Venezia.
