About

With Tenebrae, Antonio Florio continues on his journey of exploration of the Neapolitan Baroque on Glossa, with a timely release of Lamentations of Jeremiah from one ‘known’ composer in Cristofaro Caresana, long-valued by Florio, and another from the succeeding generation at the end of the 17th century in Gaetano Veneziano, a pupil of Francesco Provenzale.

The vocal works on this new recording are scored for a solo soprano - also from Naples, Valentina Varriale is fast becoming a central member of Antonio Florio’s musical organisation, the recently-renamed I Turchini.

Instrumentalists from I Turchini take the opportunity to demonstrate their mastery of the Neapolitan style in string music – a Sinfonia and a four-part Sonata – by Veneziano and one of his contemporaries, Giuseppe Antonio Avitrano.
