Montserrat Figueras, Arianna Savall, Ferran Savall, Andrew Lawrence-King & Jordi Savall Hesperion XXI, Le Concert des Nations & La Capella Reial de Catalunya, Jordi Savall Did you know that most Alia Vox albums were recorded between 1 and 4 am? Not only
because of tight recording schedules, but also because the night creates an very special quality
of silence...
This double album is the best possible tribute to Alia Vox' short but intense history.
Not just an 'anniversary CD': it is a fascinating musical journey, based not only on existing
material, but also on unreleased recordings (Charpentier - CD2 track 5) and on future albums
(CD2 track 1 was recorded for the upcoming project Jerusalem).
Recordings from the Astrée catalogue are also included in this definitive overview of a major
component of Jordi Savall's creative process: the night. “Jordi Savall's discs can always be relied on to widen listeners' musical horizons in the most enjoyable way possible” Daily Telegraph “As we expect of this team, Musica Notturna is sumptuously packaged, diligently researched and superlatively-well performed.” BBC Music Magazine, February 2009 **** | | | Usually despatched in 3 - 4 working days. |
