Tenebræ Responsoria, Feria Quinta

Album by Carlo Gesualdo & Les Arts Florissants & Paul Agnew

Tenebræ Responsoria, Feria Quinta is a collection of Tenebrae responsories composed by Carlo Gesualdo and first published in 1611. The music applies Gesualdo's late-Renaissance chromatic language to liturgical texts, combining close vocal textures, abrupt harmonic shifts and striking dissonances, and it forms part of his late sacred output that expanded expressive possibilities within Renaissance sacred music.
First released: 10th March 2023
