Marcello: Estro poetico-armonico. Parafrasi sopra Salmi (Venezia 1724-26) - Volume 6: Psalms 31-35

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 6:

• Salmo XXXI (Beati quorum remissae sunt iniquitates);
• Salmo XXXII (Exultate justi in Domino);
• Salmo XXXIII (Benedicam Dominum in omni tempore);
• Salmo XXXIV (Judica Domine nocentes me);
• Salmo XXXV (Dixit justus ut delinquant in semipso)
