This decisive sea-battle between the Christian European (mainly Venice, Spain and other Italian states) troops and the Ottoman Empire left many traces also in the music of that time. One is the so-called genre of "battaglia", but also church musc and popular songs deal with this subject. In this extremely varied program with works by Gabrieli, Palestrina, Pinello, Annibale Padovano and popular music from Venice and Napels CONCERTO ROMANO will be joined by the Istanbul based ALLA TURCA KOLLEKTIF whose Ottoman music from early sources of the Imperial palace will harmoniously unite itself with the Italian music of CONCERTO ROMANO in memory of a horrible war fortunately long ago.
