During the Pandemic in 2020-22 we decided to record, in our local church and some other churches that we had access to, the Mystery (or Rosary) Sonatas by H.I.F. Biber, written in Salzburg around 1670. Those Sonatas are incredible pieces of Art for their beauty and the efficacy of the use of a rhetorical language in music.
Here are the link to all the Sonatas recorded by Arparla.
This is the final video.
