Classical / Renaissance / Motets / Choral
Carlo Gesualdo has become notorious, not only from his royalty but for the eccentricities of his life and music. Gruesomely murdering his first wife and her lover, mistreating his second wife and isolating himself have all fuelled the ""myth of Gesualdo as a madman"". Gesualdo turned his prodigious compositional talent to the creation of a collection of pieces that betray his obsession with his own personal sin. The five-voice motets on this release speak as strongly as Gesualdo's words ever could. The Marian Consort possesses both a lean vocal delivery and a robust interpretation of the texts.
Carlo Gesualdo's five-voice motets, published in 1603 under the title Sacrae Cantiones, have suffered in recording catalogs in comparison with his tortured madrigals and exquisitely gloomy Tenebrae responsories. This is a shame, for revealed here are serious sacred compositions that make use of many madrigalian devices, but are not simply madrigals with sacred texts. They come out especially madrigalian in this one-voice-per-part recording by the young Marian Consort: not always an ideal solution, but easy enough to imagine for Gesualdo, writing in splendid isolation in his castle after the violent events of his life, with a small troupe of virtuoso musicians on the payroll. Gesualdo uses his chromatic and extreme madrigal language as just one possibility among several; typically chromaticism will illustrate a moment of suffering, but then the polyphony will retreat to the block proto-chords of the later 16th century's motet composers or even to smooth Palestrina-like polyphony, as the text demands. The result is an exceptionally sensitive handling of text, serious but never overwrought. Sample a piece like Hei mihi, Domine for the overall effect. A recommended way into some little-known late Renaissance masterworks.
