Par MONTEVERDI CLAUDIO / GOMBERT NICOLAS. Monteverdi's Missa in illo tempore for six voices, together with the Vespers form a collection of church music which was printed in Venice in 1610 and dedicated to Pope Paul V. During the period of transition from the older [16th century] polyphonic style to the new concertante style Monteverdi displayed his compositional abilities in this collection using both means of expression. Whereas the Vespers contained, for their time, the most modern concerti, contemporaneously the Missa employed the already obsolete genre of parody mass based on themes from a motet by Nicolas Gombert; it was composed consciously in the stile antico. The vocal parts are accompanied by a basso continuotreated as a basso seguente. / Messe / Répertoire / Choeur SSATTB et Basse Continue

Aus: Israelsbrünnlein. Geistliche Madrigale. Par SCHEIN JOHANN HERMANN. Johann Hermann Schein’s Israelsbrünnlein, published in Leipzig in 1623, is a supreme achievement not only among the works of this composer, who had been Thomaskantor in Leipzig since 1616, but also for the entire body of German music written during the first half of the 17th century. Among the 26 motets written “in the Italian madrigal manner” 23 are settings of Old Testament texts, a fact to which the collection owes its title. The source for the text of this collection is the “inexhaustible fountain” of the Psalms, the books of Moses, the Prophets, the Songs of Solomon, and other books of the Old Testament. / Mottet / Répertoire / Choeur SSATTB et Basse Continue
