Italian Laude in Early Renaissance
Le Miroir De Musique, Baptiste Romain
- Format
- Digital
This recording explores the musical world of the Laudesi confraternities, which were active around 1500 in the Venetian region, and their rich repertoire of Italian devotional songs. These works often venerate the Virgin Mary and the Passion of Christ, and are characterized by an aesthetic deeply rooted in popular piety. They frequently combine homophonic compositional technique with a direct expressivity aimed at ordinary people and influenced by Franco-Flemish songs. Le Miroir de Musique draws inspiration from the musicians of the Scuole Grandi from the Venetian Renaissance and creates a soundscape at the intersection of spirituality and emerging humanism.
