In Artistic Disobedience Claudio Bacciagaluppi shows how music
practice was an occasion for cross-confessional contacts in 17th-
and 18th-century Switzerland, implying religious toleration. The
difference between public and private performing contexts, each
with a distinct repertoire, appears to be of paramount importance.
Confessional barriers were overcome in an individual, private
perspective. Converted musicians provide striking examples. Also,
book trade was often cross-confessional. Music by Catholic (but
also Lutheran) composers was diffused in Reformed territories
mainly in the private music societies of Swiss German towns
(collegia musica). The political and pietist influences in the
Zurich and Winterthur music societies encouraged forms of
communication that are among the acknowledged common roots of
European Enlightenment.
