Marcello: Estro poetico-armonico. Parafrasi sopra Salmi (Venezia 1724-26) - Volume 4: Psalms 19-25

Description

The Estro poetico-armonico is regarded as the most monumental and complex collection of sacred vocal music, not merely within the context of Benedetto Marcello's output, but also among the entire Italian repertoire of the 18th century. It comprises eight volumes and features intonations of the first fifty Psalms of David, based on the Vulgate translation and paraphrased in Italian – Parafrasi sopra salmi – by the Venetian poet Girolamo Ascanio Giustiniani.

Volume 4:

• Salmo XIX (Exaudiat te Dominus);
• Salmo XX (Domine in virtute tua laetabitur rex);
• Salmo XXI (Deus Deus meus, respice in me);
• Salmo XXII (Dominus regit me);
• Salmo XXIII (Domini est Terra);
• Salmo XXIV (Ad te Domine levavi);
• Salmo XXV (Iudica me Domine)
