We continue our series dedicated Monteverdi’s teacher Marc-Antonio Ingegneri and his long-neglected sacred settings with the Choir of Girton College, Cambridge and their director, Gareth Wilson.
NOTE: All of the music on this program comes from recordings on the Toccata Classics label with the Choir of Girton College, Cambridge directed by our guest, Gareth Wilson. Volume 4 is CD # TOCC 0716.
The Cremonese composer Marc’Antonio Ingegneri (c. 1535/36–92) is chiefly remembered as the teacher of Claudio Monteverdi while, for well-nigh 500 years, his own achievements were left to sit in the shadows. This fourth in a series of pioneering recordings from the Choir of Girton College, Cambridge, presents a sequence of music for Holy Week and Easter, confirming Ingegneri to have been one of the masters of his age. The striking range of moods heard here will confound conventional expectations of Renaissance polyphony: Ingegneri’s emotional palette extends from tender intimacy in some of these motets to dancing, celebratory jubilation in the Mass setting – all of it music of breathtaking richness and beauty.
