Inside Early Music

Bernard D. Sherman invited many of the leading practitioners to speak out about their passion for early music - why they are attracted to this movement and how it shapes their work. Whether debating how to perform Monteverdi's madrigals or comparing Andrew Lawrence-King's Renaissance harp playing to jazz, the performers convey not only a devotion to the spirit of period performance, but the joy of discovery as they struggle to bring the music most truthfully to life.
