Episode 3
Donald Macleod considers how modern styles, popular tunes and dance rhythms found their way into the sacred 'villancico' form in Spanish Baroque music.
Donald Macleod explores the little-known music of 17th and 18th-century Spain.
The all-powerful church in 17th century Spain liked its music very traditional indeed: old-fashioned and strictly Latin only. Outside the liturgy, though, composers could be more experimental. Donald reveals how modern styles, popular tunes and dance rhythms found their way into the sacred 'villancico' form.
