Harmonia for September 16, 2007
7:00 AM - 8:00 AM
[Program Website]
Today's Highlight: "The Odd Couple"
The trumpet shall certainly sound this week on Harmonia as we look at the late-baroque aria for trumpet and voice, an unusual partnership employed by composers to make a specific point. Join us in our travels to Italy, Spain, Germany, and England in search of the perfect examples. We'll also listen to a new release of the complete works of Vincent Lübeck.
From the transcendent sounds of Anonymous 4, to the sublime realm of Chant, to the passion of an Italian Baroque violin sonata, Harmonia is drawing new listeners in unprecedented numbers to the world of Early Music.
Harmonia is a production of WFIU in Bloomington, Indiana, home of Indiana University's prestigious School of Music and the largest Early Music Institute in North America; with additional technical support from KOHM at Texas Tech University in Lubbock, Texas. Bloomington's position as a center for Early Music research provides fertile ground for concert recordings and interviews with top performers and scholars in the field.
Indiana University's Thomas Binkley Archive of Early Music Recordings, an unmatched resource for rare, out-of-print, and historically important Early Music recordings, enriches Harmonia's musical offerings. Combining this unique collection of resources with commercial, private, and archival material, Harmonia host and producer Angela Mariani brings historically informed performance to today's listeners, adding evocative commentary to illustrate, inform, and entertain.
