Early music revival

The Early Music Revival is a movement that began in the 20th century, dedicated to performing and studying music from the Medieval, Renaissance, and Baroque periods with historical accuracy. Musicians aim to recreate how the music sounded when it was originally composed, often using period instruments and authentic techniques. This movement seeks to deepen understanding of early musical styles, enrich performances, and preserve historical traditions. It has influenced modern performances, bringing renewed attention to a rich heritage that had been largely forgotten or misunderstood for centuries.
