This is the third annual podcast to focus on some of the most interesting early music heard throughout the year. The list, whittled down from hundreds of choices, is meant to cover recordings that have been heard either on the weekly podcast or program, yet there is at least one gem that will be new to Harmonia's loyal followers.
The podcast contains musicians from Europe, North America, and the Middle East, music from the East and West, and many special approaches to each ensemble's chosen repertoire.
Whether you like music of the Middle Ages, Renaissance, or Baroque, all of the top ten discoveries are definite winners.
