HENRICO ALBICASTRO (1661 – 1730) 12 Concerti A Quattro Op. 7

 

Riccardo Masahide Minasi,

Collegium Marianum,

Collegium 1704

Vaclav Luks

 

Music, the most transient of the arts, has been hidden for centuries at the back of shelves, in libraries, in the cupboards of church choirs. To seek it out is to undertake a voyage into the unknown: exciting, adventurous, full of promise. Vaclav Luks conducts the Collegium Marianum and Collegium 1704 in a performance of the Concerti a quattro, Opus 7, by Swiss composer Henrico Albicastro (real name Weissenberg), a small part of a rich treasure trove of Baroque music, but one that will delight music lovers.
