Summary |
Hervé Niquet conducts the never-performed since baroque times 40-voice Mass by Alessandro Striggio. This monumental Mass, up to 60 voices for the finale, was lost and forgotten. Its harmonic sophistication remains unsurpassed. How could Alessandro Striggio achieve such a prowess? The rehearsals interviews with the jubilant Hervé Niquet and musicologists, the recalls of musical composition techniques of the Renaissance are as exceptional as the piece itself |
