Vespers of 1610

Album by Claudio Monteverdi & Harry Christophers & The Sixteen

Vespers of 1610 is a collection of sacred vocal music by Claudio Monteverdi, published in 1610. The work blends Renaissance polyphony with emerging early-Baroque concertato techniques—combining solo voices, choir and instrumental forces with basso continuo and striking textural and harmonic contrasts—and occupies a pivotal place in Monteverdi's output and the broader transition from Renaissance to Baroque sacred music.
