Conductor and harpsichordist Jeannette Sorrell travels musically from darkness to light
Jeannette Sorrell opens up a selection of classical music from her point of view as a conductor and harpsichordist - revealing familiar and unfamiliar works in a new light.
Conductor and harpsichordist Jeannette Sorrell is artistic director of period instrument ensemble Apollo鈥檚 Fire, and passionate about bringing early music to life.
Today, Jeannette explores the importance of the key of D minor in several pieces, ranging from a fiery harpsichord concerto to a movement from Mozart鈥檚 Requiem.
Jeannette also enjoys folk songs that have found their way from the British Isles to American and Canada, and finds comfort in discovering the music of her own roots thanks to klezmer band She鈥檏oyokh.
Plus, a medieval manuscript brought to life, even though half the music is missing鈥�
A series in which each week a musician explores a selection of music - from the inside.
