Giulio Prandi is building a career on religious music hidden in the archives of Italian churches and abbeys. He regularly discovers new gems, dusts them off, puts them under the microscope and examines their cut. And once he has approved them, he and his Ghislieri Choir & Consort enable the light of truth to shine out.
Prandi is presenting us with some gems by Pergolesi: a recently published mass and a newly discovered motet. He interweaves the double chorus and orchestra together while alternating a intimacy and grandeur. Dissonants dissolve into dulcet harmony, melodic clarity is united with masterly and well-defined polyphony. Old and new fuse to form a unique voice. Don't miss this chance. Prandi and his musicians are among the great discoveries of contemporary baroque practice.
