We know that key influences on Flamenco date backto Islamic Iberia or the Al-Andalusian era of Spainbetween the 8th-15th centuries. Yet the first mentionof Flamenco by name is not until 1774, where itappears in an epistolary novel, Cartas Marruecas, bythe playwright and soldier, Jose de Cadalso y Vazquez. In collaboration on with soprano Victoria Couper, kanunplayer, Konstantin nos Glynos, and oud/Flamencoguitarist, Ignacio Lusardi Monteverde, this album seeksto explore this question by tracing the influences onFlamenco through Arabic music alongside Sephardicsong and the Spanish composers of the late-16th to18th centuries. What happened in these intervening centuries?

Lux Musicae London - Vestiva   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Vestiva not only our red thread throughout the album, referring to one of our favourite madrigal hits Vesti va i colli, but also a metaphorical motto Inchdressing upInch the music with colours, diminutions, trilli, accenti... (as the hills, the colli, in the original madrigal text are dressed up with flowers) in the balancing act of pure fl exibility and absolute punctuality or momentum - creating spoken InchwordsInch with a minimal, reduced instrumentation and without actual sung text. Working in this minimal, fragile and intimate instrumental setting with lute, harp and recorders while trying to reach maximum expression is an absolute challenge and pure joy.
