Genre: Classical / Label: Da Vinci Classics

This is what happens in this Da Vinci Classics album, in which the “contemporaneity” of many musical languages and styles is portrayed, along with the capability of musical works to travel in time, and to provide fresh inspiration to those studying them. Allegedly, Giuseppe Verdi affirmed that true innovations could be found by returning to the past; and many musicians of the nineteenth and twentieth century would have agreed with him.
Prior to the nineteenth century, music was mostly considered as an ephemeral phenomenon: operas from the preceding season were quickly discarded, and there was only little and limited interest in works composed in previous eras. There was, however, a notable exception, represented by sacred music. Here, tunes which could be centuries old had been continuingly adopted throughout the history of the Church. Sometimes, their original form had been preserved remarkably well (although performance practices could change dramatically), as in the case of Gregorian chants originating in the Middle Ages and still sung today in the liturgical worship of the Catholic Church. On other occasions, tunes could be reworked and modified, and also employed as “building material” for works conceived in a style different from the original one. This is the case with polyphonic works based on a cantus firmus, a plainchant tune, which could find its way in a variety of different styles characteristic of later epochs. This is also the case with Gregorian tunes which were modified and adapted by Churches which had separated from Catholicism: the most obvious example is that of the Lutheran Church, many of whose Chorales are directly or indirectly derived from Gregorian models.
