Notes & Reviews:

For their debut recording, the six-strong Marian Consort explores music from late 16th- and early 17th-century Spain. This fascinating program celebrates the rich compositional fruits of the Siglo de Oro's intensely competitive musical culture. The luminary works-all dedicated to the Virgin Mary-demand performances of great intelligence and vocal commitment. The youthful Marians respond absolutely, bringing hushed intimacy and bristling excitement to some of the most gorgeously searing lines in the history of European polyphony.
