Carissimi & Contemporaries

With a slight move forward in time from my previous post we find in Rome Carissimi and Michelangelo Rossi. Cazzati and Legrenzi are moving around in the Northeast. In Venice instrumental music is cultivated by Biagio Marini and Dario Castello, and Barbara Strozzi sings arias composed by herself.
