The musical forces of the Josquin Capella led by Meinolf Brüser perform the sacred works by Jacques Arcadelt on this new CD. Josquin Capella is vocal ensemble famed for its mastery of the high Renaissance – spanning the late fifteenth and sixteenth centuries.
Arcadelt celebrated success during his lifetime above all with secular music and today is regarded as one of the founders of the Italian madrigal. However, he did invest a significant amount of time writing sacred music which is lesser known.
