Monteverdi: Madrigale Erotici & Spirituale

Kirkby, Tubb, Nichols, King, Cornwell, Grant, Rooley (Director & lute)

Review:

Monteverdi of this quality will doubtless become a constant reference throughout the group's career. Their performances of the Madrigali Erotic are more overtly impassioned than I have ever heard... both the sacred and secular... thoroughly ingenious recital
