George Weigand (Dir) // During the later sixteenth and throughout the seventeenth centuries - Spain's Golden Age - Spanish music developed its individual character to a high degree. The combination of vibrant rhythms partly derived from folk music, use of glosas and diferencias (extemporised divisions and variations) over ground bass, dance and vocal music, and an adventurous and inventive sense of harmony characterise this repertoire.
