Rossi’s (c.1570-c.1630) publications Rossi’s madrigals serve as an it seems that he was more Mantovano important landmark in music history: than Hebreo. While Rossi is well- his Il Primo Libro di Madrigali (1600) known for his famous volume of sacred includes the first known printed music in Hebrew, Hashirim Asher intabulation for the chitarrone (also Li’Shlomo (1622/3), he also published known as the theorbo). This four books of instrumental music and intabulation appears as a possible nine books of Italian secular music accompaniment for six of the (within which we find six books of madrigals in this collection and offers madrigals, and one book each of alternative performance possibilities canzonette, balletti, and madrigaletti). for these pieces. One option is to treat This vast amount of secular music it as an accompaniment for the five suggests that Rossi played a prominent singers - as heard in Udite, lacrimosi musical role among the nobility of the spiriti d’averno (1600) - the result being city of Mantua, especially at the court equivalent to the practice of of the Gonzagas, where he appears to performing madrigals with basso have worked for most of his musical continuo, which became popular life. during this period. Another option is Rossi’s madrigals although to perform these madrigals using solely historically overshadowed by those of the canto part accompanied by the his colleague and collaborator Claudio chitarrone, as heard in ‘Cor mio, deh Monteverdi (1567-1643), are beautiful non languire’ (1600). Interestingly, the and refined examples of the genre. A result of the latter choice, while based closer examination of the madrigals on five-part polyphony, is surprisingly of these two great composers shows similar to the emerging genre of the two different approaches towards Florentine solo song. The most famous the same style and musical language; publication of this style was Giulio Rossi’s madrigals are characterized Caccini’s Nuove Musiche (1602), which 6 was published at the same time as intabulations however, it is evident Rossi’s first three madrigal books. that this was not the case and that Performing Rossi’s intabulated the intended instrument was a kind madrigals in the aforementioned of Renaissance lute with additional manner – with the canto part alongside bass strings. Most interestingly, the chitarrone - created a link between and quite uncommonly, Rossi the 16th century polyphonic madrigal indicated instrumentation in all of his and the new monodic style of the early instrumental collections: ‘Per sonar 17th century. due viole & un chitarrone’ (‘to be played An even clearer connection between with two violins and a chitarrone’). Rossi and Caccini can be found in Each composition on this album is their settings of the same poems: performed as originally indicated by Rossi’s ‘Sfogava con le stelle’ (1602) the composer. and ‘Vedrò ‘l mio sol’ (1603) conclude At the Gonzaga court in Mantua, with almost identical melodies to those Rossi’s instrumental pieces would have set by Caccini. Considering the fame been performed regularly, in dramatic that Caccini’s songs had long before performances, balls and chamber they were printed, it is most likely that concerts. These charming pieces were Rossi was the one inspired by Caccini integrated in dramatic performances, and not vice versa. This tribute to one balls and chamber concerts. Rossi’s of the leading musical figures of the first collections of instrumental music time is demonstrative of the extent contain several pieces for four- and to which Rossi was influenced by his five-parts (as heard in ‘Sinfonia contemporaries.

Thus Rossi - his Madrigaletti a due voci (1628), a unique in his musical abilities in the vocal form parallel to the instrumental Jewish community - created a new trio sonata; both were written for a genre that was inspired, even if only combination of two equal parts over conceptually, by the music in the a bass. The madrigaletti were Rossi’s ancient temple of Jerusalem. Rabbi most modern vocal compositions, Leon Modena, Rossi’s supporter ranging from the expressive and religious authority, wrote in his ‘Messaggier di speranza’ (1628) to the elaborate preface to the publication: light-hearted ‘Pargoletta, che non sai’ (1628).

    EARLY MUSIC NOW WITH SARA SCHNEIDER Broadcast Schedule — Summer 2020 PROGRAM #: EMN 20-01 RELEASE: June 22, 2020 Treasures from Wolfenbüttel Starting in the late Renaissance, the court at Wolfenbüttel in northern Germany emerged as a cultural center. The dukes of the house of Welf employed high-profile composers like Michael Praetorius to increase their prestige, but lesser masters like Daniel Selichius made their mark as well. In this edition of Early Music Now, we'll hear from both composers, with performances by the Huelgas Ensemble and Weser-Renaissance Bremen. PROGRAM #: EMN 20-02 RELEASE: June 29, 2020 Those Talented Purcells This week's show focuses on Henry Purcell, and his lesser-known brother (or cousin) Daniel. We'll hear chamber music by both composers, plus selections from the semiopera they worked on together: The Indian Queen, from a 2015 release by The Sixteen. PROGRAM #: EMN 20-03 RELEASE: July 6, 2020 The Lost Voices of Hagia Sophia This week's program showcases an extraordinary recent release from the Portland-based ensemble Cappella Romana. This recording of medieval Byzantine chant composed for Hagia Sophia was recorded entirely in live, virtual acoustics, and soared to #1 on Billboard's Traditional Classical chart! These evocative sounds linger in the soul long after the music fades. PROGRAM #: EMN 20-04 RELEASE: July 13, 2020 Salomone Rossi: Revolutionary Jewish composer Salomone Rossi was a musician who served the Gonzaga court in Mantua. They valued him so highly that he was given a relatively large amount of personal freedom, while other members of the Jewish faith were restricted.

  • Profeti Della Quinta
    Profeti della Quinta „Renaissancemusik zum Verlieben!“ titelten die Potsdamer Neueste Nachrichten und bestätigten damit, dass man mit dem Repertoire des 16. und 17. Jahrhunderts begeistern kann. Das Vokalensemble Profeti della Quinta hat sich eben dieser Musik verschrieben und sein Ausgangspunkt ist das fundierte Musizieren nach der Aufführungspraxis der jeweiligen Zeit, gepaart mit dem Bewusstsein für das heutige Publikum und dessen Hörgewohnheiten. Das Ensemble wurde in Galiläa in Israel von Elam Rotem, Bassist und Cembalist, gegründet. Mittlerweile ist es in der Schweiz ansässig, wo alle seine Mitglieder weiterführende Studien an der Schola Cantorum Basiliensis absolvierten. Wie der Name schon sagt, besteht das Ensemble im Kern aus fünf Sängern, die nach Bedarf mit befreundeten InstrumentalistInnen und SängerInnen aus der Schweiz, Japan und Australien zusammenarbeiten. Erste Bekanntheit erlangten die „Profeti“ durch Emilio de Cavalieris Lamentationen (1600) sowie Salomone Rossis Hashirim asher li’Shlomo (1623), der ersten Veröffentlichung hebräischer, polyphoner Musik. Mit der CD-Einspielung dieses Werks und eines Dokumentarfilms über Salomone Rossi, gefilmt an den Originalorten in Mantua, wurde dann auch die internationale Presse auf das schweizerisch-israelische Ensemble aufmerksam. Und zusammen mit dem Preis des York Early Music Young Artists Competition (2011) kamen dann die ersten wichtigen Einladungen aus Europa, Nordamerika, Israel, China und Japan. Zu den wichtigsten internationalen Festivals und Reihen gehören u.a. das Oude Muziek Festival Utrecht, das Rheingau Musik Festival, die Musikfestspiele Potsdam, die Beethovenfest Bonn, das London Festival of Baroque Music, die Einladung in das Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York oder in die Shanghai Concert Hall. 2019 begeisterte Profeti della Quinta gemeinsam mit etwa 15 Gästen unter der musikalischen Leitung von Elam Rotem das Publikum der Trigonale im österreichischen St.

  • Jacobson 2020
    Editing Rossi Preparing the synagogue music of Salamone Rossi —published in 1622— for modern performers -Joshua R. Jacobson 2020 Editing Rossi Joshua Jacobson page 2 In 1622 Bragadini Publishers in Venice issued a collection of polyphonic motets the likes of which had never been seen before. This was an anthology of motets not for the church, but for the synagogue, with lyrics not in Latin but in Hebrew. Composed by the Mantuan Jew Salamone Rossi, this unique collection was destined to remain the only one of its kind for several centuries. We don’t know much about Salamone Rossi. He was born circa 1570. His first published music is a book of nineteen canzonets printed in 1589.1 His last published music is dated 1628, a book of two-part madrigaletti. And after that there is nothing. Perhaps he died in the plague of 1628. Perhaps he died during the Austrian invasion in 1630. We just don’t know. His published output consists of six books of madrigals, one book of canzonets, one balletto from an opera, one book of madrigaletti, four books of instrumental works (sonatas, sinfonias, and various dance pieces), and the path-breaking collection of synagogue motets: in all, some 313 compositions published between 1589 and 1628. Rossi also composed music for a renowned Jewish theatre ensemble, but, alas, none of it was published, none has survived.2 Rossi was employed at the ducal palace in Mantua, where he served as a violinist and composer. He was quite the avant garde composer. His trio sonatas are among the first to appear in print.3 Rossi’s

    THE MONTEVERDI FESTIVAL PROGRAMME Saturday 5th May, 9.00 pm – Chiesa S. Marcellino GLORIA E IMENEO Musiche di A. Vivaldi EUROPA GALANTE Sonia Prina, mezzosoprano Vivica Genaux, mezzosoprano Fabio Biondi, direzione Commissioned in 1725 by the French Ambassador in Venice to commemorate the nuptials of Louis XV and the Polish princess Maria Leszczynska, the serenata Gloria e Imeneo contains some of Vivaldi’s finest music, alternating virtuosity with elegance, poignancy, and dramatic fervour. Hymen and Glory compete each other in celebrating the radiant future of the French monarchy, and in congratulating the young royal couple in the most extravagant style, to join in a grand finale. The inaugurating battle of the Festival will be fought by two ravishing Baroque heroines, Sonia Prina and Vivica Genaux, accompanied by Fabio Biondi’s exciting Europa Galante. Sunday 6th May, 6.00 pm – Auditorium Giovanni Arvedi (Museo del Violino) PROLOGUE Prologhi e Sinfonie di G. Caccini, F. Cavalli, A. Cesti, C. Monteverdi, A.

A selection of the most beautiful prologues and symphonies by Cavalli, Cesti, Monteverdi and Stradella are embodied here by rising star Francesca Aspromonte and the fresh and dynamic ensemble Il Pomo d’Oro lead by Enrico Onofri.

  • Profeti Della Quinta
    Profeti della Quinta Philippe Verdelot: vierstimmige Madrigale BR Klassik, 25. April 2021 // Thorsten Preuß Eine Stunde Verdelot-Madrigale – das verspricht brave Gleichförmigkeit, gediegene Öde. Dachte ich. Bis ich die CD dann doch einlegte – und mich verliebte. (…) Gleich zu Beginn ein Wohlfühl-Bad zum Hineinlegen: Was für ein fülliger, homogener Klang, warm, weich und ausgewogen. Was für eine einfache, aber wirkungsvolle Harmonik. (…) Durchhörbar ist der Klang, glasklar die Artikulation, der Text so deutlich gesungen, als wäre er gesprochen. Und so fallen auch die ersten zaghaften Versuche von Tonmalerei auf, die Verdelot wagt: wenn er zum Beispiel mit raschen Notenwerten den Wind imitiert. Keine Frage: die Profeti della Quinta haben das Beste aus der Corona-Situation gemacht – für sich, für uns, für Verdelot. erika esslinger konzertagentur, Werfmershalde 13, 70190 Stuttgart Fon +49 (0)711 722 3440, Fax: +49 (0)711 722 34411, [email protected], www.konzertagentur.de Profeti della Quinta Monteverdis "L'Orfeo" Glasklarer Gesang bei der Trigonale in St. Veit/Glan Opera Online, 27. Oktober 2019 // Dr. Helmut Christian Mayer (...) großartigen Musik von Claudio Monteverdi (...) Und diese ist bei Elam Rotem, der vom Cembalo, Orgel oder Regal aus seine rund 20 musikalischen Mitstreiter leitet und zudem noch beim Chor mitsingt, in besten Händen: Denn frisch, stilsicher und nuancenreich wird die Partitur von den engagierten Musikern, die alle in grünen T-Shirts mit der Aufschrift „Orpheus and the Lyres“ stecken, wiedergegeben. Und hierbei passiert das Wichtigste: Es gelingt ihnen, das Publikum damit sehr zu berühren. (...) Das Publikum im ausverkauften Innenhof zeigt sich restlos begeistert und spendet stehende Ovationen! erika esslinger konzertagentur, Werfmershalde 13, 70190 Stuttgart Fon +49 (0)711 722 3440, Fax: +49 (0)711 722 34411, [email protected], www.konzertagentur.de Profeti della Quinta Sinnlichkeit in Klang und Wort Die Oberbadische, 17.
