About the event
Anna Fraser (soprano) and Hanna Lane (Ialian triple harp)
“filled with emotional depth and subtlety” – Adelaide Advertiser
This most delicate program of early Italian baroque, accompanied on a historic 17th century harp, celebrates the seductive sweetness of the female voice. Reflecting the unashamed erotic images of the painters in the wake of Titian or Giorgione, composers opened up a new world for the solo voice: poetic, virtuosic and utterly seductive. Two eminent Baroque specialists take you inside the opulent world of the North Italian palazzi with music by Luzzaschi, Caccini, Rossi and Frescobaldi.
