1. SIGHT-READING EUROPEAN POLICIES
Rarita Zbranca
How can Europe contribute to strenghten the early music scene? How can cultural policies be regulated at European level when culture is so specific to one country?

In this first episode, Rarita Zbranca explains the repercussions of EU policies on the Romanian cultural scene, using the Cluj Cultural Center (Romania) as an example.
2. DEFINING EARLY MUSIC: I'D RATHER CHANGE CONTINENTS
Romina Lischka
What’s the scope of early music? This unanswerable question impacts our practices and our approaches to the sector. Since reaching a common definition seems idealistic, why not embrace the different meanings given to these words, and what they imply for their supporters and their activities?

3. MEET AN AGENT: BECOME AN ARTIST?
Clémentine Richard

5. RESEARCH: TERRA INCOGNITA OR LAND OF NEW EMOTIONS?
Tiago Simas Freire
In this episode, Tiago Simas Freire discusses how research is also a means of connecting the past with present emotions. More than historically informed, Early Music can be culturally informed and resonate with our own experiences. And that’s the first step for successful research projects that will breach the market!
6. Recording: Think outside the CD box
Hannelore Guittet
What’s the current situation of recordings in Early Music? How can we innovate in a sector that has undergone such change in recent years?

Reginald Mobley
What’s the situation of inclusion in the Early Music sector? In this episode, countertenor Reginald Mobley puts the issues of race, gender, and more generally, identity under the spotlight.

8. GIVE A GUIDONIAN HAND TO THE AUDIENCE
Isaac Alonso de Molina
How early music can be specific in its approach to new audiences? How are conservatoires tackling this issue?

9. EARLYMUSE: FIND YOUR JIG PARTNER IN A RESEARCH LAB
Rebekah Ahrendt
In a branch of music where research plays such a central role, how can there be such a disconnection between research and performance? How can we create cooperation between both fields? These themes, according to Rebekah Ahrendt, are central in "EarlyMuse", a research action funded by the European Cooperation in Science and Technology (COST). Listen to her describe her ideal world in this final episode of the 4th season of the Early Music Podcast!
10. IMPRESSIONS FROM THE EARLY MUSIC SUMMIT
Hello and welcome to the last special episode of the 4th season of the Early Music Podcast, dedicated to the impressions shared by the participants of the Early Music Summit with host Darina Ablogina.
The Early Music Podcast - season 3
April 2023
For its third season, the Early Music Podcast is an introduction to early music. Each of the ten episodes follows in the footsteps of an outstanding composer from the Middle Ages to the Romantic era, gives keys to listening and understanding a work or a period, and examines the great myths of the ancient music: music of the past, based on research and rediscovery of the repertoire, or territory of creation and experimentation for artists? Far from pre-conceived ideas, each episode gives the floor to a specialist who depicts an unexpected picture of what makes early music so facinating for artists and audiences today!

1. Introduction
Andrew Burn
What is so special about Early Music that makes people so passionate about it?
What is it like to “rediscover” today a composer from 1000 years ago? What do you learn about a piece when you search for the ultimate grail of the original concert hall it was first performed in? How can you try to rebuild a long gone Renaissance instrument and not lose your sanity? And, more than everything, what is so fascinating about it that you would want, today, in 2023, to dedicate your life to it? Let’s investigate, in 9 episodes, listening to the 9 speakers we picked for their reputation of being quite particular about one specific character of Early Music.

2. Girolamo Frescobaldi
Francesco Corti
Why can’t you just read the score that you want to perform?
Dedicated to the Italian genius composer Girolamo Frescobaldi (1583-1643), this episode is an introduction to early music performance and textual sources. Francesco Corti, harpsichordist and conductor, explains the principles of musical improvisation and, above all, how composers told their contemporaries how to play their music. We will then go on to discover the cultural and musical revolution that was the 'Seconda Prattica', a revival to which Frescobaldi contributed greatly.

3. Claudio Monteverdi
Tim Carter
What happens when a piece by Monteverdi finds its way to its original concert hall?
In the third episode of season 3 of the Early Music Podcast, Tim Carter introduces us to Claudio Monteverdi (1567-1643), an Italian composer and contemporary of Girolamo Frescobaldi, who is considered one of the creators of opera and, with Orfeo, the author of the first masterpiece of the genre. From Florence to Venice, passing through Mantua, this third episode evokes the privileged link between architecture and music and evokes the scenic dimension of the works of Monteverdi and his contemporaries.

4. Guillaume Dufay
Catalina Vicens
Why do you care so much about what sort of keyboard Johan Sebastian Bach used to play on?
This fourth episode is devoted to the fifteenth-century Flemish composer Guillaume Dufay, but also to a work of art that is as mythical as it is mystical, The Adoration of the Mystic Lamb (1432, Saint Bavo Cathedral, Ghent) by the Van Eyck brothers. Catalina Vicens takes us on a journey of discovery of this timeless work and, more generally, the textual or figurative sources that point researchers and musicians to the way music was played before the eighteenthᵉ century and what the musical instruments used looked like.

Olga Pashchenko
Don’t you sometimes wish you could just ask Beethoven what he meant in that peculiar passage?

Benjamin Bagby
What is so fascinating about some medieval nun’s songs?
Better known for her important work as a naturalist and physician, Abbess Hildegard von Bingen (1098-1179) also composed more than one hundred and fifty liturgical songs and melodies, which were rediscovered in the late 1970s by the ensemble Sequentia and its two directors, Barbara Thornton and Benjamin Bagby. In this sixth episode, Bagby tells us about the rediscovery of early music in the second half of the twentieth century, a movement to which he and his ensemble contributed greatly.

In this seventh episode, composer Errollyn Wallen presents her opera Dido's Ghost, a sequel to Henry Purcell's (1659-1695) semi-opera Dido and Æneas. At a time when the Baroque and the performing arts were flourishing in England, Purcell's work offered his contemporaries a delightful spectacle that continues to inspire artists and musicians today.

9. Clara Wieck-Schumann
Natasha Loges
Probably a XIXth century woman couldn’t contribute significantly as an artist, composer or concert organizer, right?
And if we apply the critical eye of early music to more recent times, what do we get? Here we take a step aside to discover the work of Clara Wieck-Schumann (1819-1896), a genius pianist and talented composer, overshadowed by a composer husband at a time when married women were kept out of the public sphere. Natasha Loges, professor of musicology, tells us about her career as a pianist after her husband's death and how concerts were scheduled in the 19th century, at the height of the Romantic period.

10. Suor Maria Celeste
Laurie Stras
Does music get suddenly better when it’s linked to the Borgia family, or are we ok with anonymously composed pieces?
In this final episode of the season, musicologist Laurie Stras introduces us to an enigmatic composer: Suor Maria Celeste (1600-1634), illegitimate daughter of the Italian scientist Galileo, and a Florentine nun of the early 17th century.

1. WHY DO THEY KEEP COMING: CRACKING THE AUDIENCE SECRET
Stephanie Wintzerith
For several years, museums have developed specific audience management strategies. In this episode, we will see how they can be applied to the Early Music field. But before that, in order to establish a strategy, one must know their audience: this is why audience surveys are essential in helping institutions to engage with the public.
2. EVERYONE DESERVES THE BEST PERFORMANCE: THE ART OF BRINGING ART TO THE PUBLIC
Constanze Wimmer
When creating projects and programming concerts, concert organisers should always be aiming at satisfying their audiences’ needs or desires. But it is not only the role of programmers: composers and artists alike should also play an important role in the process of audience development.
3. LOST AND FOUND: TRADITIONAL AND EARLY MUSIC IN IRELAND
Siobhán Armstrong
Ireland is known for many things but one thing that keeps fascinating people all around the world is its culture and its traditional music that pervades any representation we have of the country. As an early music musician in Ireland, it is inevitable to be confronted to the many instrumental and performance traditions that have existed for centuries, from the jig to the fiddle and the harp.
4. VERSAILLES, 300 ANS DE SPECTACLES 8 MILLIONS DE VISITEURS
Denis Verdier-Magneau
This episode of the Early Music Podcast follows our REMAin Connected conference on 21 May on cultural tourism. The Château de Versailles and domain are an important part of France's historical heritage, welcoming around 8 million visitors every year. It is also an important place in the history of French baroque music, which is reflected not only in its architecture but also in the events that are organised there today. In Versailles, two organisations coexist: the public body that is the Château, the museum and the national domain of Versailles, and the private company Château de Versailles Spectacles, which is responsible for concerts and shows.
5. UN CHEMIN JOYEUX- TRANSITION ET VIVANT
Sophie Lanoote and Nathalie Moine
In recent years, concerns about social and ecological transition have come to the forefront of political and social issues as well as in our private and professional lives. Many cultural organisations are setting up innovative initiatives to achieve a more equitable and sustainable future. In this endeavour, it is always fruitful to share our challenges and successes with the rest of the sector so that our efforts can bring real change. With this in mind, Nathalie Moine and Sophie Lanoote set out to create a white paper containing the results of years of observation as well as advice for cultural organisations who wish to rethink their place in and impact on the world.
6. FRENCH SUMMER EPISODES: ACCORD MAJEUR
Margaux Hardoin, Aline Sam Giao and Jean-Christophe Frisch
This episode of the Early Music Podcast takes you to Aix en Provence, on the occasion of the Rencontres Nationales d’Accord Majeur, for our last French Summer episode!

This year’s theme was dedicated to how the professionals of the live performance field address the challenges of ecology. By reviewing the different steps towards awareness, and putting forward the most relevant and meaningful projects, the conference has whetted the participants’ appetite for doing better and bigger!

Thierry Maniguet, Emanuele Marconi, Geerten Verberkmoes, Sebastian Kirsch, Jean-Luc Ho and Catalina Vicens

4. CONCERT 2.0: BACK TO THE FUTURE
Bernard Foccroulle, Ira Givol, Mélanie Froehly and Tamar Brüggemann
Early Music performances, just like any type of music, come with certain rules and traditions: you will most probably sit in a darkened room and enjoy your concert in silence for one hour and a half. These are not perpetual laws, but merely constantly evolving standards. And the magic happens when performers, programmers, and audiences step out of their comfort zone… and experience the concert of the future!
5. LEARN AND BECOME: TEACHING THE NEXT GENERATION OF PERFORMERS
Isaac Alonso de Molina, Claire Michon, Kelly Landerkin, Mauricio Molina, Marcello Mazzetti and Livio Ticli
The music schools in which young students are trained to become Early Music performers come in all shapes and sizes, with sometimes a repertoire as the only common ground. What does it mean to study in the Early Music department of a prestigious conservatory? What would be different in a school designed to focus on Early repertoire? Or a Summer course? Or a more eclectic institution? Coming from a variety of backgrounds, our guests share how their teaching situation has shaped the curriculum and the pedagogy they can implement, and the repercussions for the students. This episode was created in partnership with AEC, the European Association of Conservatoires.
6. BORN UNDER CHARLEMAGNE: HOW EUROPE MAKES EARLY MUSIC
Katarina Livljanić, Simone Dudt et Delma Tomlin
Which came first, Early Music or Europe? Whenever you choose a start date for Early Music, you will probably pick a period during which the idea of a common European culture was present. The music that marks us always carries a sense of belonging to a broader community, which made it relevant to so many people across the area. But it also gives a sense of diversity, with local traditions melting into more general movements and adding to more than a thousand years of shared common heritage. Skip to 2020 and see how today’s European Union reflects this immense cultural wealth, and what tools support Early Music producers and performers today in the European Union!
7. OFF THE RECORD: THE STORY BEHIND YOUR EARLY MUSIC CDS
Alex McCartney, Charles Adriaenssen, Jean Rondeau, Peeter Vähi and Tiina Jokinen
CD recording has undergone major changes in the last few years, due, obviously, to the arrival of digital opportunities for distribution, and new habits for the listeners and CD buyers. How are the labels reacting and adapting? And what opportunity will performers see in recording their music in the future? What can we expect from the listeners’ side? And, more importantly, what happens in the recording studio? Here is an insight into the minds of label managers, performers and sound engineers…
8. READ THE BOOK: FROM THE LIBRARY SHELF TO THE CONCERT HALL
Dinko Fabris Musicologist, Małgorzata Krzos, Giulio Prandi and Agnieszka Budzińska-Bennett
Early Music is all about how we deal with our heritage. After an episode where we followed the path that goes from the music instruments kept in museums collections to the stage and live performance, let’s hear how the precious written sources held in our libraries can be a tool and an inspiration for the artists. Here is the story of another love triangle, between the library curators, the musicologists, and the performers themselves.
9. THE END OF EARLY MUSIC: POSTPONED
Ira Givol, Benjamin Bagby, Daniel Leech-Wilkinson and Peter Van Heyghen
The End of Early music is at the same time the title of the book published by Bruce Haynes in 2007, the title of a symposium organized in zamus (Köln) that was conceived as a follow-up on the book’s themes, and a deliberately controversial proposed approach to today’s Early music practice. In this episode, we gathered a few of the original guests of this symposium, and whom you may still hear on this topic when it can finally take place in 2021.
10. PERFORMERS AND MUSICOLOGISTS: YOU CAN DO IT!
Margaret Bent

Albert Edelman et Veerle Declerck
This episode will give an overview of the Early Music Summit that will take place from 20 to 22 November 2020 in BOZAR, Brussels, and online, on the occasion of the opening of registration. This major event for REMA is conceived as an opportunity for the whole early music sector to meet and work together towards a better future: taking a look back at the history of the Movement, embracing today’s practices, and getting to know more about what will come in the next years.
