About this concert

Of the sixteen masses published by the Sevillian Cristóbal de Morales in 1544, only one is based on a secular song: the six-part Missa Mille regretz, wrought around a chanson by Josquin des Prez. And this is no coincidence: with his collection of masses, Morales marketed himself as the true heir to Spain's favourite Lowlander.  

With voices and instruments, Gabrieli Consort frames this key work in a ceremonial setting at Toledo Cathedral, where Morales was active as Kapellmeister for several years. There, on holy days, such as the feast of Isidorus of Seville, polyphony was sung and accompanied by wind instruments. Tientos for organ and Spanish-style Gregorian chants form the velvet against which Morales' crown jewel shines again.
