Cantica Symphonia
Giuseppe Maletto - conductor
On this recording, approached from the beginning as a great tribute to science, Dufay’s motets sound as they never did before, with the wise incorporation of instruments where the score is claiming them, with that perfection engraved with humanity that only the greatest can transmit, with a music and an interpretation that are far beyond the fashions of the moment. A full celebration of the eternal expressed through the ephemeral...
Cantica Symphonia, in their first recording for Glossa, perform Dufay's motets with the careful addition of wind instruments and an organ as the score dictates.
