Rediscovering Spain—one of the most successful programs of Accademia del Piacere—will be played at the Mare Musicum Music Festival of Roquetas de Mar, Almería (Spain).

Fahmi Alqhai wrote on it:

“The routines of instrumental performance in past centuries did not go by merely reading the music written by the composers, but involves a re-reading of the original text and the transformation of the pieces: adding or removing voices,  glosses, instrumentation or using characteristic motifs as a basis for improvisation or creation of new counterpoint. In this program Accademia del Piacere seeks the recovery of the main instrumental practice (Hispanic, in this case) and of the musical reading of the 16th and 17th centuries, keeping us away from the superficial interpretation of fantasías, diferencias & glosas—created at its time as mere examples of a practice— and focusing on pure creation and performance following true historicist criteria: the real aim and purpose of the musicians at all times.”
