Barbara #Strozzi’s ‘Amor dormiglione’ from the Op. 2 set of Cantate, ariette, e duetti (1651) is one of her most beguiling and subtly witty arias, a gently teasing address to Cupid himself, coaxing the god of love to wake and resume his work...
from Bellot Ensemble’s debut album, Cupid’s Ground Bass, filmed at VOCES8 Centre. Lucine Musaelian sings while also playing the #violadagamba, joined by Daniel Murphy on #theorbo and Matthew Brown on #harpsichord...

Amazing rendition of this piece by theorbist Brandon Acker and countertenor Key'Mon Murrah. Such a clear, high voice, without being shrill in the least. An absolute gem!

All too short!
La Folia is a classic 500-year-old chord progression that was possibly the most used in all of western music history. Other compositions based on it include Marin Marais' variations for bass viola da gamba.
Anyway, it's a fun quick listen.
