Compagnia Del Madrigale - Primo Libro Di Madrigali - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

The early five-part madrigals published by Luca Marenzio in 1580 in his InchFirst Book of MadrigalsInch revive the Roman dolce vita of the 1580s and 1590s. The music and texts of this InchPrimo Libro di Madrigali a cinque vociInch evoke that Golden Age of art and science in which cardinals and princes were splendor-loving patrons. At the time of it's , Marenzio's InchPrimo LibroInch was a huge success and his recording forms another madrigal jewel in the collection of the Compagnia del Madrigale, which once again shows how sonorous and colorful it knows how to interpret this Italian repertoire. In addition to the madrigals from the InchPrimo LibroInch, this recording also features the rarely performed InchSestina Mentre ti fui sì gratoInch, a collaborative work by a collective of Renaissance composers known as the InchMusici di RomaInch. It consisted of the six composers Nanino, Moscaglia, de Macque, Soriano, Zoilo and Marenzio himself, each of whom set a stanza of this madrigal to music, thus offering the listener exciting opportunities for comparison.
