Advent and Christmas music from the Renaissance and early Baroque
Under the title “Nova! Nova!” (“New! New!”), The Playfords devote themselves to Christmas music from the 14th to 18th centuries. Songs and dances from England, France and Spain are grouped around well-known German melodies.
As an ensemble of specialists in early music, The Playfords place themselves in the almost lost tradition of improvising Renaissance and Baroque musicians. With their playful and authentic approach, they allow the music of days gone by to live out the whole range of Christmas emotions, from quiet emotion to exuberant ecstasy, including tongue-in-cheek contemporary references.
Like every year, we play the program with Claudia Mende on the baroque violin.
