Rennaissance Improvisations
Ensemble Doulce Mémoire
 |
Ensemble Doulce Mémoire assembles a lively selection of dance and improvised music for your listening delight. Their specialty is in revealing the forgotten arts of embellishment and improvisation in Rennaissance music. Using ten didactic works works published in Italy between 1535 and 1620 as reference, they have reconstructed these techniques to capture the spirit and style of popular 16th Century musical performance. The result is an intoxicating sound that has injected new energy and an adventurous sense of fun that has won praise (and awards) from the most demanding critics. |
