Intro
Myrna Herzog plays and introduces different bowed instruments which were in use in the Middle Ages (vielle), the Renaissance (rabel - still used as a folk instrument) and the Baroque (baroque cello, bass Viol and quinton).
"The Lady of the Viol" (as she is called by O Globo newspaper) shares her immense enthusiasm with the audience. With a big smile Myrna tells little stories about each instrument, plays catchy music in each one, revealing each instrument's own captivating voice and personality. To hear them in a row is a fabulous experience, for old and young alike.
