Mass in 40 parts

Description

ATTENTION PREMIERE MONDIALE !Discover the first world recording of a mass from the 16th century, whose score was recently found in Paris. Alessandro Striggio was a Florentine composer (he served the Medici) famous for his virtuosity in composing for multiple voices simultaneously. A librarian of Catherine de Medici made a mistake in cataloging the score of his mass Ecco si beato giorno under the name Strusco instead of Striggio and listing it as a mass for 4 voices instead of 40.This phantom score had been sleeping on the shelves of the Bibliothèque Nationale de France for over 4 centuries (!), until Davitt Moroney, an English musicologist and harpsichordist, found it through research and perseverance. The English vocal ensemble I Faglioni, conducted by Robert Hollingworth, has therefore decided to record this colossal and sublime mass for 40 voices. A world premiere that is already making baroque music lovers tremble with anticipation: the rediscovery of the score in Paris has recently created a buzz on the internet.
