Description
Carlo Gesualdo's choral works were unique for the time around 1600, and it takes only a few measures to identify their distinct style. No other composer advanced the interpretation of the text in such a varied manner as Gesualdo, and none wrote harmonies that are so daring and of such incomparable freedom in all of music history. Beyond his musical contributions, Gesualdo's life itself reads like an adventure novel – another singular feature among composers of that era.
- Alme d'Amor Rubelle
- Al mio gioir il ciel si fa sereno
- Ancide sol la morte
- Ancor che per amarti
- Ardita Zanzaretta
- Ardo per te, mio bene
- Beltà, poi che t'assenti
- Candido e verde fiore
- Chiaro risplender suole
- Deh, come invan sospiro
- Già piansi nel dolore
- Io parto, e non più dissi
- Io pur respiro in cosí gran dolore
- Mille volte il dí moro
- Moro, lasso, al mio duolo
- O dolce mio tesoro
- Quando ridente e bella
- Quel 'no' crudel che la mia speme ancise
- Resta di darmi noia
- Se la mia morte brami
- Volan quasi farfalle
- Tu piangi, o Filli mia
- Tu segui, o bella Clori
