Editor's info:
Paul Agnew and Les Arts Florissants conclude their exploration of this fascinating corpus.
Even more than in his first books, Gesualdo here displays incredible modernity, playing in inimitable fashion on dissonances and chromaticisms.
Love and death, joys and sorrows embrace and clash amid ever bolder harmonies.

“Fully integrated with the musical line, the singers avoid melodrama through intimate, small gestures as if acting for screen, not stage.” - Gramophone Critics’ Choice 2021

BBC Music Magazine * * * * *
… Here, the singers zone in on Gesualdo’s final two anthologies (perhaps the rawest of all) with their usual crystalline clarity.

FanfareJuly
… The present group offers beautiful singing, acute interpretations, and warm recorded sound.

Gramophone Magazine
… Agnew is surely right to insist on the music’s ability to stand on its own terms. It bears repeating: those who have thought of Gesualdo as a one-trick pony (‘Moro lasso’ and all that …) now have more than six hours’ evidence to the contrary.
