About this concert
When words can no longer provide comfort, man seeks solace in music. Even when Milan was hit by a plague epidemic around 1630, grief found an outlet in newly composed motets and masses. In collaboration with musicologist Daniele Torelli, La Divina Armonia presents modern premieres of some gems by Orfeo Vecchi, Michelangelo Grancini and Sigismondo d'India.

About the performers
La Divina Armonia was founded in 2005 by the Italian organist and harpsichordist Lorenzo Ghielmi. The ensemble consists of musicians who have earned their spurs as soloists or musicians in renowned Baroque ensembles. Ghielmi’s lyrical and rhythmically accentuated approach lends itself perfectly to Italian repertoire, but the musicians, with their expressive articulation and melodic phrasing, feel no less at home in German Baroque. La Divina Armonia was artist in residence of the Utrecht Early Music Festival 2017.
