Leading the following workshop in EUROPA CANTAT Pécs:
The participants will become familiar with the musical and theatrical world of madrigal comedies through a special presentation, in which we are trying to answer questions related to the role of madrigalism in the work of contemporary musicians. We will also try to seek the best ways to approach such works and to perform them on stage. The second half of the presentation will be an open discussion, reflecting on the topic together with the lecturers.
