Many thanks to Emilia Benjamin for introducing us to ‘heaven’s hoover’ (or the lirone, or lira da gamba). This beautiful instrument was popular in the late 16th and early 17th centuries, and it was often used in Italian operas to accompany singing.
This lirone has 13 gut strings, but some have as many as 16!
Guest Soprano: Jessica Cale
