About

One of three volumes to appear offering an anthology of the eight Books of madrigals by Monteverdi, interpreted by Les Arts Florissants directed by Paul Agnew. Each volume is associated with one of the cities that marked out the composer’s career: this opus is dedicated to Cremona (extracts of Books I, II, III).

Cremona is the city where one of the greatest geniuses in music grew up: Monteverdi was born in 1567 and spent his first 20 years in this small Lombard city on the Po plain, where his musical vocation was born.

Les Arts Florissants are the best ambassadors, who have since 2011 performed this repertoire throughout Europe - a vast undertaking.

Reviews

If a keen sense of the interpretative moment is the hallmark of ensemble performance at its best, then this new Monteverdi instalment from Les Arts Florissants deserves to be held up as such. ... That these are live perfomances, and in a relatively dry though not unflattering acoustic, contributes to the sense of spontaneity. ...  One is torn between regret that there is to be only one further volume, and anticipation at what it might bring.  Fabrice Fitch
Gramophone July 2015
