MUSIC BY Alonso Mudarra, Bartolomeo Tromboncino, Juan Ambrosio Dalza, Marchetto Cara, Diego Ortiz, Francesco da Milano Mateo Flecha, Juan del Enzina, Luis de Narváez, Michele Pesenti, Benedetto Gareth and Francesco Spinacino. THE REPERTOIRE OF AKANTUS consists chiefly of renaissance music. This concentrated and emotionally potent collection of late 16th-century Spanish and Italian music features the uniquely expressive voice of Lena Susanne Norin which, while taking us back to a bygone age, does so with such a gripping contemporaneity that the historical perspective seems to become a trompe l'oeil. Lena Susanne Norin - voice, Peter Söderberg - lute, vihuela, Leif Henrikson - viola da gamba
This rich voice is a refreshing change from the light, high soprano recording I have. This is plush! Love it!
