Tarquinio Merula is a representative of the generation of Italian composers born around 1600, for whom the concertante style was no longer a new idiom, but a preferred musical medium that had been acquired from childhood and which spread throughout Europe as the predominant musical language of the time. Tarquinio Merula was known as a violin and organ virtuoso and published a wide range of instrumental sacred and chamber music. InAlto focuses on Merula's sacred works, including the famous lullaby "Hor che è tempo di dormire". His works may sometimes seem simple, but they are impressively innovative; although sacred in character, they are rooted in human emotion.
