Beautiful Music in Difficult Times September 28

My offering of Beautiful Music to you today is FANTASTIC. The “Fantastic Style” (stylus fantasticus) was a free form musical style popularized in 17th century Italy. Violinist Ingrid Matthews and harpsichordist Byron Schenkman explored this improvisatory form on their recording,”in Stil Moderno,” including this Sonata Duodecima by Isabella Leonarda.
