Diminutions on Io son ferito ahi lasso — A video from 06-02-15

G.P. da Palestrina & G.B. BovicelliIo son ferito ahi lasso

Milena Cord-to-Krax, recorder | Alejandro Casal, harpsichord

Last Friday I played these diminutions from Bovicelli’s treatise Regole, passaggi di musica, madrigali et motetti passeggiati (Venice, 1594). Bovicelli himself was a singer, but they work just as fine as an instrumental version, I think.

Pulchra es amica mea — A video from last Friday’s student concert

Last Friday we had our monthly recorder students’ concert at Seville’s Conservatory, whose topic was, this time, 16th century music. I played some beautiful diminutions by the always inventive F. Rognoni on G.P. da Palestrina‘s motet Pulchra es amica mea. The recorder I used is probably my favorite one: a renaissance tenor by recorder maker Bob Marvin. Anyway, this was the result:
