Philippe Herreweghe returns to Monteverdi: and as a result we’ll be sitting on the edge of our seats. This music blossoms as he encourages orchestra, ensemble and choir to function like a single organism. In the Marian Vespers past and present blend into one. With skill and insight, Herreweghe conjures up the sensual beauty of religious fervour. The timbres compete with the golden mosaics of San Marco. This masterpiece flows warmly and intoxicatingly over the listeners.
