Enigma Fortuna: On the cusp of the Renaissance

Antonio Zacara da Teramo (ca. 1360–1416) was one of the great composers bridging the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. Prolific and widely copied, his compositions are in a variety of styles, registers, and forms. “Enigma Fortuna” is an invitation to discover the great vitality and eccentricity of his music, presented by one of his present-day champions, La Fonte Musica. Explore a world in which enigmas and oracle intertwine, with obsessive variations on the theme of Fortune laced with sarcasm, irony, and self-deprecation.
