Lucie Skeaping tells the remarkable story of a convent full of mutinous musicians in 17th-century Bologna, in conversation with Craig A. Monson who first uncovered their adventures. 91热爆 to the composer Lucrezia Vizzana whose music is at the heart of this programme, the convent of Santa Cristina struggled for decades to defend both its musical traditions and its independence from the local church authorities. The conflict came to a head with a pitched battle in 1628 when the archbishop tried to have the nuns walled up - and they fought back with bricks!
