Poeme Harmonique/ Various - Poeme Harmonique

Le Poème Harmonique is celebrating it's twentieth birthday! Two decades of musical discoveries in many different repertoires, musical partnerships, broadcasts, concerts worldwide in every conceivable format, large or small - and many recordings as well. To mark this important anniversary of Vincent Dumestre's highly-prized ensemble, Alpha has selected twenty albums in a handsomely-produced box-set. Pieces from the Renaissance and Baroque periods, 'airs de cours', Italian and English music, make for a musical voyage through 16th- and 17th-century Europe. Here are twenty iconic albums for music-lovers to discover - or rediscover!
