“A tierras ajenas” (through foreign lands) proposes a musical and literary journey through the Spanish courts of the Renaissance reflected in the seven extant Spanish vihuela books. The richness of this repertoire is presented not only through vernacular Iberian forms like the romance, cancion, villancico and soneto but through foreign ones like the Italian madrigal, the Portuguese cantiga and the French chanson. Great poets of Antiquity (Horace and Virgil), the most influential composers of the time (Josquin, Arcadelt, Willaert, Verdelot, Vázquez, Flecha and Sermisy) and emblematic Renaissance poets (Tasso and Sannazaro) all help creating a picture of the art and culture cultivated at the courts of Spain in its Golden Age.
