Every Delight and Fair Pleasure
Music of the 14th Century Vol. 2
Music from northern Italy written between the second decade of the 14th century and the early years of the 15th century.
Includes The Rossi Manuscript, a collection of early treccento songs; a selection of madrigals by Maestro Piero and madrigals and ballatas by Bartolino da Padova. This fascinating disc includes notes on the composers, the works, the context of the music, compositional techniques, translations and stylistic analysies of each piece. Press quotes:
“the occasional track can do wonders to relieve sensory biliousness if you're indulging in an unrelieved diet of orchestral and/or operatic music: epicurean excess for the ear.”
