Legrenzis career was indeed eventful; before becoming maestro di cappella of St. Marks in Venice, he had been approached for a position at the court of Louis XIV and had also hoped for a function at the Imperial court in Vienna. This recording echoes these events with a monumental Dies Irae and motets that were found in the library of Sbastien de Brossard, as well as the Sonate a quatro for viols that originate in a collection dedicated to the Emperor. The compositions recorded here show us a musician whose lyricism is very much operatic in style, but who nevertheless displays a complete knowledge of polyphony.

The 17th-century Venetian composer Legrenzi is still under-represented on disc. As well as serving as maestro di musica at one of the four Venetian orphanages, Legrenzi eventually followed in Monteverdi's footsteps as Prime maestro at the Basilica of St Mark's. And, in common with some other Italian composers, his sacred music found favour outside Italy and especially at the Habsburg court of Leopold I in Vienna.
