About this concert

In 15th-century polyphony suffering is, after love, possibly the most important theme. As in the Flemish Primitives’ paintings, the tears flow copiously in the oeuvre of composers such as Josquin Desprez. With this selection of Josquin’s finest dark timbres (Miserere mei, De profundis, Absalon fili mi), Cappella Amsterdam guarantees us a breathtaking programme with a palette of muted colours. The concert ends with Musae jovis, Gombert’s lamentation on the death of Josquin.

About the performers

Cappella Amsterdam, under its conductor Daniel Reuss, has become a permanent fixture in the Dutch musical landscape. Within its repertoire, that stretches from early to brand-new music, Dutch composers play a special role. Recordings on the Glossa label bear witness to the choir’s long association with Frans Brüggen, while Harmonia Mundi has released CDs of Sweelinck and Janáček.
