Il Complesso Barocco; Alan Curtis
Description
The three madrigal cycles based on the same scene (Silvio-Dorinda) from Guarini’s famous tragicomedy “Il pastor fido” show their composers Claudio Monteverdi, Sigismondo d’India, and Luca Marenzio — three of the most important figures of the Italian proto-Baroque — at the height of their respective careers.
They reflect also the vivid and dramatic changes undergone by the Renaissance madrigal, bringing it to its spectacular climax of expressive maturity — and its inevitable demise.
The artists on this recording are "Il complesso barocco" under the direction of the late Alan Curtis.
