Thanks for this beautiful, damn interesting story.

Thanks to this I’m currently listening to Missa Salisburgensis and I’m really impressed. I’m already planning to listen to the other works by Biber you mentioned.

It is nice to see A> an essay by anyone on music history, and B> an essay on Biber in particular. Well done.

I get so tired of all the mindless dribble on the internet especially when I’m looking for a distraction from all the mindless dribble at my job. One day I typed “I need something interesting to read!” into Google and this came up. I must say I find the articles much more satisfying than the usual internet fodder and well written enough for the name to be considered accurate. I just wanted to say thanks for that and I hope to enjoy many more articles here in the future. (I can see that the writers and commenters here are not just interesting but educated too. For that reason, I will purposely write my comments with a few slyly placed grammatical or spelling errors in them just to see if you can spot them – not because I’m a bad writer. Just FYI)
