description
On their first release for harmonia mundi, Bertrand Cuiller and Caravansérail explore the theatre music of 17th century London. The recording, which features soprano Rachel Redmond, includes a selection of incidental music, airs and dances that combine the English tradition with French and Italian innovations. A Fancy offers listeners a fascinating reconstruction of music from this key period in English history.
