While seeking to maintain authentic performance standards, the ensemble brings the music very much into the present, arguing that artistic questions of the past still permeate the musical landscape today. Featuring a captivating group of solo singers, who between them have performed with the Amsterdam Baroque Choir and The Bach Choir & Orchestra of The Netherlands, the ensemble is headed by Krijn Koetsveld, leader and harpsichordist, who has previously collaborated with the Groot Omroepkoor and the prestigious Netherlands Chamber Choir. This is the second of a planned release of Claudio Monteverdi’s complete madrigals.The fifth and sixth book – already released on Brilliant Classics as 93799 – were the first to break with tradition and herald ‘la seconda pratica’, the era of the basso continuo. From then on, the publication of Monteverdi’s innovative settings were eagerly awaited, as they set the stage for more instrumental ritornellos, a newly important basso continuo and the addition of ornamentation around the bass and vocal parts. The book finishes with a ballo, Tirsi e Clori, a love duet with a five‐part accompaniment, highly elaborate, with a chatty Tirsi contrasting with a sweet and melodic Clori. When the two singers come together with the rest of the ensemble, the listener is treated to the pinnacle of the madrigal era. 00:00:00 Sinfonia – Tempro la cetra, SV 117 00:08:11 A quest’olmo, a quest’ombre, SV 119 00:14:02 Non è di gentil core, SV 118 00:17:49 O come sei gentile, SV 120 00:21:49 Io son pur vezzosetta pastorella, SV 121 00:25:05 O viva fiamma, o miei sospiri ardenti, SV 122 00:28:13 Vorrei baciarti, SV 123 00:32:33 Dice la mia bellissima Licori, SV 124 00:35:02 Non vedrò mai le stelle, SV 126 00:38:58 Ah, che non si conviene, SV 125 00:42:12 Ecco vicine, o bella tigre, l’ore, SV 127 00:46:15 Perché fuggi tra’ salci, SV 128 00:49:31 Tornate, o cari baci, SV 129 00:52:11 Soave libertate, SV 130 00:55:38 Se ’l vostro cor, Madonna, SV 131 00:58:41 Interrotte speranze, eterna fede, SV 132 01:01:14 Augellin, che la voce al canto spieghi, SV 133 01:04:42 Vaga su spina ascosa, SV 134 01:07:34 Eccomi pronta ai baci, SV 135 01:10:07 Parlo, miser, o taccio?, SV 136 01:14:36 Tu dormi, ah crudo core!, SV 137 01:17:47 Al lume de le stelle, SV 138 01:21:50 Con che soavità, labbra adorate, SV 139 01:26:21 Ohimé, dove il mio ben, SV 140 01:31:02 Se i languidi miei sguardi, SV 141 01:38:49 Se pur destina e vole, SV 142 01:47:42 Chiome d’oro, SV 143 01:50:49 Amor, che deggio far?, SV 144 01:55:33 Ballo.
