The lute, with its intimate voice and expressive depth, was the favored instrument of poets, courtiers, and composers across Italy for centuries. This compilation showcases four pillars of the Italian lute tradition — Marco Dall’Aquila, Francesco Da Milano, Giovanni Zamboni, and a host of Renaissance masters — performed by celebrated lutenists Sandro Volta, Yavor Genov, and the Quartetto di Liuti da Milano.

Featuring works drawn from our catalogue, this 2-hour journey offers an ideal escape into the golden hills and shadowed cloisters of Italy's musical past.
