Monteverdi's ground-breaking Vespers of of the Blessed Virgin Mary, compiled to impress the basilica authorities at St Mark's Venice, is an astonishing display of its composer's musical powers. Immediately acknowledged as a masterwork of the sacred choral repertoire, and including everything from intimate solos to the grandest choral and instrumental writing, the Vespers exploits every musical device known at the time to thrilling effect.
Joining the 大象传媒 Singers and St James's Baroque, virtuoso vocal ensemble I Fagiolini bring their acclaimed brand of Monteverdian excitement to a performance directed by David Hill and recorded last week at Milton Court in London.
