About

David Bates directs La Nuova Musica in a pair of contrasting settings of Psalm 109.

Handel's masterful and ambitious HWV282 was penned in 1707 during a youthful visit to Italy. Vivaldi's vivid and economical RV807 (his third Dixit Dominus) was long mistakenly attributed to Baldassare Galuppi. It probably dates from the early 1730s.

Rounding out the programme is Vivaldi's dazzling motet for solo voice, In furore iustissimae irae, featuring soprano Lucy Crowe.

"Their [La Nuova Musica] passion and understanding of the style of music which they are playing is clearly evident in their phrasing and dynamic approach … a special mention should go to the countertenor Christopher Lowrey, who has an exceptional voice and whose upper range is extremely impressive." - Pete Trewin, Hi-Fi
