About this concert
Melodies with wings: in the England of William Byrd and John Dowland, they float effortlessly from voice to lute, from lute to keyboard – and back again. Catalina Vicens follows in their footsteps on virginal and harpsichord, where dances, ballads, and pavans continually take on new forms.
Harpsichord: Boccalari 1699
