Carlo
Gesualdo, the ill-fated
if brilliant composer of
the 16th-17th centuries
was all but lost to music
history until his
rediscovery in the 20th
century. His writings,
described as intensely
expressive, were
centuries ahead of their
time, and were perhaps
informed by the tragic
events of his life. Of
particular appeal are the
many madrigals written
between 1594 and 1613,
and Freshner has chosen
several examples in his
arrangements for brass
quintet. From the book of
1597, he adapts I. Luci
serene e chiare, II. Ecco
moriro dunque; Hai, gia
mi discoloro, and III. Io
tacero; Invav dunque, o
crudele. The complex
harmonies and
spirituality are unlike
anything else written 400
years ago. For advanced
performers.
