This program focuses on the embellished madrigal, typical of the 16^{th century} in Italy  together with  sonatas, ballets and madrigals in their simple polyphonic version. The consort of strings, recorder and lute expresses the different colors and melodic line as it happens in vocal polyphony, transferring those great skills of interpretation to the instrumental music played in the program.
