Man and Music: The Age of Reason
Plot
During the Baroque age, a new form of music appeared when the establishment of oratories, or prayer halls, allowed the congregation to participate in singing. Resembling an opera -- but without the theatrical actions, costumes, and scenery -- the oratorio included parts for solo singers and stressed the importance of the chorus. In Man and Music: The Age of Reason, principal works presented include selections from Arpegiatta by Kapsberger, La Bella Man Vi Stringo by Caccini, Sant'Alessio by Landi, and Transivit ergo by Carissimi. ~ Alice Day, Rovi| Man and Music: Schubert - The Young Romantic (1988 Film), Man and Music: Out of the Darkness (1988 Film) | |
