"A hell on earth" Martin Luther is said to have called the city of Rome in connection with his pilgrimage there in 1511. Was he right? Five hundred years later Concerto Romano tries to reconstruct a kind of "soundtrack" of his stay with voices and instruments. Starting out from Roman music editions of the time, the repertoire of the city churches and works, which were regarded as "hits" at that time on the Apennine peninsula, and which the guest from the North would not have forgotten so easily, Concerto Romano has been able to resurrect the sounds of the Holy City from the time of Luther's visit - the superior sound culture of the Catholic cathedrals and palaces, as well as the ,,less sacred" sounds from the streets and alleys.
