Discover Roman polyphonic music of the 17th century.
The splendours of sacred music in Rome dazzled the whole of Europe.
The splendours of sacred music in Rome dazzled the whole of Europe.
A specialist in the Italian Baroque and a great discoverer of scores, Argentine conductor Leonardo García-Alarcón invites us to take an exhilarating plunge into the riches of polyphonic music as practised in 17th-century Rome. From Allegri's famous Miserere, a masterpiece of the Sistine Chapel repertoire jealously guarded for centuries, to the poignantly chromatic motets of Alessandro Scarlatti, this concert also offers us the chance to discover a little-known mass by Giovanni Giorgi, a composer who was choirmaster at Saint-Jean-de-Latran before ending his career at the court of Lisbon.
