Malgosia Fiebig
Melancholy, madrigals, majesty: England shows its best vocal side in this anthology of Renaissance and Baroque. Malgosia Fiebig makes the Dom Tower tremble with songs by John Dowland, Thomas Tallis, and Henry Purcell, arranged for carillon. To the tones of mournful songs and dance-like chaconnes, the entire city centre is enveloped in wistful beauty.
