Dedicated to the great Marian devotee Prince-Archbishop Maximilian Gandolph of Salzburg, Heinrich Ignaz Franz Biber's sonata cycle on the mysteries of the Holy Rosary is considered a highlight of Baroque music.
Set in 15 different moods, the highly virtuoso violin music puts the listener in a mystical mood. The meditations on the mysteries of the rosary, together with the readings of the corresponding texts from the Gospels, become a unique, contemplative listening experience.
On December 18, 2023, you will hear the five sonatas on the mysteries of the Joyful Rosary in accordance with the cycle of the year.
