Stream//Download//Buy → Coming Soon
The scandalous composer Carlo Gesualdo, Principe di Venosa, was also an excellent lutenist extolled by his contemporaries. At the end of the sixteenth century he received the first two prototypes of the archlute from his colleague Alessandro Piccinini in Ferrara, one of which he kept. In the absence of music for the lute by this composer of genius, Bor Zuljan has imagined the sound world of the prince’s archlute: a kaleidoscope of fabulous and extreme sonorities on this extravagant instrument, from transcriptions of his vocal and instrumental music to the astonishing chromatic compositions of the composers he is thought to have encountered in the course of his turbulent life. Includes works by C. Gesualdo, A. Piccinini, J. H. Kapsberger, P. P. Melli, C. Saracini etc.

COOL

[@Amaranthslo]

I agree! Very cool :) It is mesmerising how Bor managed to lock the phrasing to the pulse beneath the rhythmic passages. The music breathes while it still remains structured where every note keeps the pressure and the momentum towards the next one, thus making the music sound alive.
