¡Monteverdi: Vespro Della Beata Vergine
¡Classical V.A.
Description
[Machine Translation] This is a remarkable work! Although "The Evening Prayer of the Virgin Mary," one of Monteverdi's most famous works, has been interpreted in many different ways over the past half century, and there are already many competing recordings, it is surprisingly unknown that it is possible to interpret the work with so little instrumentation. Ludus Modaris, who has already released numerous masterpieces of Renaissance polyphonic music on the RAMEE label, has taken the plunge this time by limiting the use of instruments to bass continuo only, eliminating all instrumental ensembles (concertato) such as violins, and using a chamber orchestra of 13 voices (the smallest composition proposed by the composer). The recording was made with a chamber music composition (the smallest composition proposed by the composer) of 13 voices. Above all, the performance is outstanding, with a brilliant renewal of the work's image. Recorded in October 2017.
