Your one-stop shop for everything related to the Peace of Westphalia

If you want to get in the mood to study the Peace of Westphalia, there is nothing better than some period music. I have listed a couple of albums on my a/v page, and I came across another one recently that I forgot I had: “Un Concert Pour Mazarin.” It consists of Italian music allegedly brought to France by Mazarin, and it is certainly beautiful Baroque music.

I also discovered that YouTube has videos with some authentic popular songs from the Thirty Years’ War, notable the “Tillylied.” I’ll be honest, it sounds kind of frightening.
