« Taking a viol in his hands, he began to play it with such sweetness that all the other emotions of the people present were surpassed by pleasure, even more so when he began to sing with the sweetest tenor voice… » Wedding celebration of the most serene D. Francesco Medici… 1579.
This account, which recalls Giulio Caccini singing while accompanying himself on the viol, adds to numerous other writings that praise the perfection of the union between voice and viol.
As early as the 16th century in Italy, accompanying the voice with a viola da gamba, known as “cantare alla viola”, was considered the most beautiful way to awake the audience’s emotions.
However, it is England that will provide us with the most exciting testimonies and reveal the fabulous embellishments that the great female singers of the time improvised. Several pieces for lyra viol, the viol played in the manner of the lyre, complement this program that weaves the connections between Italy and England at the dawn of the 17th century.
