SCHEIDT - Ludi Musici by L’Achéron & François Joubert-Caillet - Recording session

Track played: "Canzon super O Nachbar Roland"
Video direction: Philippe de Magnée
CD Release: October 2015

Samuel Scheidt was one of the most complete composers of his generation. Organist, he composed sacred music and instrumental music that is at a crossroads, combining the Lutheran polyphonic tradition and all the influences of Italian music and the style of Monteverdi. The dances and fantasies contained in his Ludi Musici (1621) do not avoid this mixture of styles, being both the legacy of late-Renaissance models and the reflection of the new virtuosity initiated by the Italians. These pieces are indeed intended for viola da gamba, which still enjoyed considerable success in Germany at that time.
