Description
The catalog of sacred vocal compositions by Padre Martini is vast. From the library of the International Museum of Music and the Diocesan Archdiocesan Archive of the Cathedral of San Pietro in Bologna, the orchestra of "San Pietro" has reconstructed one of the most moving liturgies for the Catholic liturgical year: the rite of the dead, which is proposed here in an accurate selection. To crown this work, an unusual (but not distant) psalm to the Office of the Dead: the De Profundis for solo baritone, filled with 4 voices and strings, representing the pinnacle of Martini's compositional ability and complexity, both in instrumental and choral music.
