Description:
Il Giardino Armonico and Giovanni Antonini appear at Erasmus klingt! in Basel with Viaggio Musicale, a journey through the musical landscape of Northern Italy in the early seventeenth century. At the centre of the programme stands Claudio Monteverdi, presented not only as a composer but also as an inspiring and innovative figure whose influence shaped the expressive world of his time.
Together with soprano Angelica Antonini and writer Alain Claude Sulzer, Il Giardino Armonico explores a repertoire rich in passion, theatricality and instrumental invention. Works by Monteverdi, Merula, Castello, Rossi, Riccio, Ferrari, Uccellini, van Eyck, Caccini and Palestrina open a vivid sound world of early Baroque Italy, from vocal laments and spiritual canzonettas to sonatas, dances and instrumental echoes.
The concert takes place at Peterskirche Basel as part of the Erasmus klingt! Festival Lab.
