Sixteen years ago the CD Metamorfosi by Le Poème<br />
Harmonique, with improvisations on Italian faux-bourdons,<br />
was a smash hit in the world of early music. Now there finally<br />
will be a sequel to this success. Le Poème Harmonique<br />
delved in the repertoire of the Neapolitan laude: sacred,<br />
non-liturgical vernacular songs which became very popular<br />
from the Middle Ages onwards.<br />
These songs were loved throughout Italy, often in the form<br />
of contrafacts, in which the existing music is assigned<br />
a different text. This concert follows the trail of the lauda<br />
tradition, from the Casa dell’Annuziata – one of the<br />
most important music institutions in Naples – to the very<br />
heart of Rome.<br />
