Ensemble La Fenice, Jean Tubery

Giulio Mazzarino, better known as Cardinal Mazarin, played an important part in the dissemination of Italian music in France in the 17th century. From 1643, when he was appointed prime minister, to his death in 1661, he carried out an astute policy in favour of Italian culture,

inviting the most famous Italian composers and performers to the French court. This disc presents a number of pieces, mainly by Italian composers, which became well known in France in the 17th century through Mazarin’s support.

Selva morale e spirituale (excerpts)


Taverner Consort, Andrew Parrott

“One of Parrott's greatest achievements and still one of the finest Vespers ever despite strong recent competition, this superbly presented version catches an expert British cast of singers and players at a peak in their powers.” Gramophone Magazine, September 2007

“The first recording to engage fully with the scholarly debates regarding the form, purpose and pitch of the work, this 1984 version is a comprehensive and radical attempt to reconstruct a festal Vespers service, the music reordered so that it no longer seems to work towards a proto-Wagnerian climax.” Gramophone Classical Music Guide, 2010

Mottetto O vos omnes qui transitis a Contralto solo con strumenti


Alena Dantcheva (soprano) & Michele Andalò (countertenor)

Animantica, Saverio Villa (director)

This album is a musical path through Baroque music in Northern Italy. It is amazing to discover how much of the landscape and of the territory is present in these pieces; the same landscape and the same territory represented by Guercino and all the painters around him. The music recalls the art and viceversa creating a strong connection between the sound and the sight that in this album is able to let us relive an era. Again, featuring Alena Dantcheva: listen to the Monteverdi…
