"Hail to the Thunderer... the Lion cometh." Sweden's "Age of Greatness" in the 17th century was a period of musical brilliance, with tributes to the warrior king Gustavus Adolphus as well as church concerts and intimate courtly music. A fitting conclusion is provided by Albrichi's setting of the Lord's Prayer, which was performed on Queen Christina's abdication in 1654, when Rome acquired a Swedish queen and Sweden its first composition in its own language. Performed, on Baroque instruments, in mean-tone intonation.
