  • Hey, is there an album this version's on? thanks

  • Yes it is, La Venexiana's recording of "il Ottavo libro dei Madrigali" under Claudio Cavina, label Glossa

  • L'esecuzione migliore resta sempre quella diretta da Rinaldo Alessandrini, con Rossana Bertini nel ruolo della ninfa...

  • I have two favorites:

    1-Figueras

    2-This one, however I consider that this lament is performed better when La venexiana uses Emanuela Galli in the role of La Ninfa.

  • i simply love this rendition.. modern with alot of agony and affectations :) great job!

  • Am I crazy or does this singer have a very contemporary sound? It's difficult to describe, but I feel like she could just as easily be singing pop music in the same way.

    Boy, is this comment going to get into hot water here.

  • I don't like this version, sorry.

  • @laurabarocca Ma certo!!! saluti da Buenos Aires!

  • @kgus123 Absolutely...she is bending notes, starting on the note below it and sliding up. This is a technique widely used in modern pop music. I have heard it done in early music but not in almost every phrase like this, more as an occasional accent. I would love to know her reasons for this (did she find documentation that this was done in Monteverdi's time? Does she always do this by habit? Did her music director ask for this?). The other singers aren't doing it at all in this recording.

  • Lindo!

  • ah
