A vivid journey from the clamour of conflict to the quiet miracle of peace. 17th-century composers painted battles in striking musical detail and then turned toward reflection, lament, and reconciliation. The programme moves from martial fanfares and foot-soldier rhythms to music of consolation and stillness with music by Lawes, Schmelzer, Biber and Falconieri.
“…Bellot Ensemble’s interpretations are wonderfully rich in contrast: heartfelt and tender, fiery and passionate.” pizzicato.lu
The programme, presented by the newly appointed New Generation Baroque Ensemble Bellot, will be recorded for future broadcast by BBC Radio 3. The New Generation Baroque Ensemble is supported by BBC Radio 3, the Royal College of Music and the National Centre for Early Music.
