A most unusual cabinet of curiosities: “Finding pleasure even in
meditating on what causes one’s pain”: that neatly defines the theme of
this album of music from the cusp of the Sixteenth and Seventeenth
centuries. Here Italian and English madrigals rub shoulders with motets
and Tenebrae responsories.
A melancholic poetry that provided endless nourishment for musical
creativity in the late Renaissance and which Geoffroy Jourdain presents
in his first recording for harmonia mundi.
thank you!
