Hell Must Be Silent
During the late 18th and early 19th centuries, the chapels at Oviedo and Santiago de Compostela were two of the most important musical centres in Spain. Jeremy Summerly introduces sacred music by their directors which contrasts the death of an individual with the bringing of new life into the world through the coming of Christ.
