Caesar Vive!
A concert of music from the Court of Rudolf II, who was Holy Roman Emperor around 1600 - rumoured to be responsible for the Thirty Years' War and a devotee of 'occult arts'.
Rumoured to be a mecca of occult practices, Prague became the cultural hot spot of late 16th-century Europe. Cappella Mariana and InAlto recreate the dazzling music scene under Rudolf ll, who was King of Bohemia, Archduke of Austria and Holy Roman Emperor for 35 years around 1600, with works by court composer Philippus de Monte and his contemporaries. Recorded in St James's Church, Bruges as part of the celebrated early music MA Festival in August last year.
