Review by Juanan Ruiz

Monteverdi & Byrd Duodena Cantitans' album "Masses" is a masterpiece of choral music that showcases the exquisite talent of the two composers. The album features a collection of sacred choral works that are performed with precision and passion by the vocal ensemble.

The album starts with Monteverdi's "Missa in Illo Tempore," a beautiful composition that showcases the composer's mastery of vocal harmonies. The ensemble's performance of this piece is outstanding, with each voice blending seamlessly to create a rich and textured sound.

The album also features Byrd's "Mass for Four Voices," which is a stunning piece of music that highlights the composer's skill in creating intricate vocal arrangements. The ensemble's performance of this piece is flawless, with each voice singing with clarity and precision.

About Monteverdi & Byrd Duodena Cantitans

Italian composer (mainly of madrigals and operas), gambist, and singer and Roman Catholic priest. Born in Cremona, 15 May 1567 (baptized); died in Venice, 29 November 1643. Monteverdi's work is often regarded as revolutionary and marked the transition from the Renaissance style to that of the Baroque period. He developed two individual styles of composition: the new basso continuo technique of the Baroque and the heritage of Renaissance polyphony. Enjoying fame in his lifetime, he wrote L'Orféo, first performed in 1600 and often regarded as the first opera. L'Orfeo, is still regularly performed.
