DCD 083 - La Suedoise

In episode #83 of the DCD Classical 'Cast, we feature music from a fascinating Musica Rediviva release. Early music specialist Tommie Andersson performs Baroque music for lute and guitar. The collection, entitled "La Suedoise" is a selection of compositions from the Swedish court of Christina, Queen regent, and later Charles X Gustav.

Christina was vitally interested in the arts, prompting a flowering of creativity, especially in the field of music.

Andersson plays works for Baroque lute and guitar, and one can easily imagine an evening's courtly entertainment being built around these pieces.
