Zum 25-jährigen Bestehen des Barockorchesters durfte Marcons Repertoireklassiker einer Monteverdi-Rekonstruktion nicht fehlen; und zurück in den Niederlanden präsentierte sich dieser mit dem Vokalensemble großartig.

A pensive mood pervaded the Waalse Kerk, Amsterdam, on Friday evening as Los Músicos de su Alteza performed a programme of sacred cantatas.

The scene is 1612 in Venice: a great battle has been won against the dreaded Ottoman Empire, and in celebration, evening prayers are ordered to be set to music specially composed by the great Giovanni Gabrieli, Claudio Monteverdi and others.

The celebrated Giovanni Gabrieli, one of the most innovative and influential composers of the Venetian school, exacting the transition between the Renaissance and Baroque musical periods, died on 12 August 1612.
