MUFFAT: ARMONICO TRIBUTO

Georg Muffat: Armonico Tributo (1682)

"The weapons of war and its consequences are far from me. Notes, harmonies, the sounds of music are my path. And when I combine the French, German and Italian, it is not to incite war, but in a desire for harmony between people and a cautious hope for peace" Georg Muffat

Reviews:
