Vespro della Beata Vergine (Marienvesper) für Chor, Soli und Orchester SV 206

Approved

With the Vespro della Beata Vergine, Monteverdi created one of the first monuments to European sacred music. At once meditative and theatrical, his score is conceived as a sum of prayers that freely calls upon the expression of joy and perhaps even the greatest sensuality. The baroque feeling of the music is already fully present in these truly virtuosic vocal pages, which alternate with moments of profound depth entrusted to the instruments. Keen to recreate the spatial setting of the musical sources as it would have been at St Mark’s Basilica in Venice, Leonardo García Alarcón will reveal all the beauty of this music as he directs his Cappella Mediterranea and his Namur Chamber Choir.

Following sumptuous performances by John Eliot Gardiner and Raphaël Pichon at the Royal Chapel, here is a new facet of the Vespers seen through Leonardo García Alarcón’s resolutely Mediterranean eyes.
