Abbatia Fontium: Suita (Fountains Abbey: The Suite) for 13-course Baroque lute has been recorded in Italy by Alberto Crugnola.
This six-movement suite is inspired by Fountains Abbey, a Cistercian monastery in Ripon, North Yorkshire. It draws on the abbey’s architecture, history, legends, and myths. Abbatia Fontium: Suita (Fountains Abbey: The Suite) was commissioned by, and is dedicated to, the Italian lutenist and patron of the Baroque lute, Alberto Crugnola.
