Monteverdi: Frammenti

Le Nuove Musiche, Krijn Koetsveld

· Recorded in February & November 2022, St Martinuskerk, Hoogland, Netherlands

· Bilingual booklet in English and Dutch contains liner notes by Krijn Koetsveld, and profiles of the ensemble and the continuo organ (specially commissioned by Koetsveld)

- This recording presents the complete Frammenti (fragments) by Claudio Monteverdi (1567-1643), which appeared in collections of sacred works by various composers, compiled and published by others.

- The Frammenti are mainly shorter choral works on sacred texts, often parts of psalms and hymns. Besides the polyphonic, madrigal-like pieces such as Adoramus te, Christe adoramus te and Domine ne in furore tuo, the often highly virtuosic duets and solo pieces stand out. Sometimes, as in Salve o regina, with written-out ornamentation that in turn teaches us a lot about the ornamentation Monteverdi envisaged. For the basso continuo, the musicians chose the following instruments: organ, theorbo, harpsichord and gamba in every conceivable combination.

- With this new recording Le Nuove Musiche conducted by Krijn Koetsveld presents a new highlight in their Monteverdi Pilgrimage, the projected recording of the complete works by Monteverdi. Their recording of the complete Madrigals received excellent reviews in the international press: “5 stars” (Volkskrant), “A polished, well-balanced sound… consistently musical and intelligent” (Early Music), “Again a convincing issue…excellent throughout” (Klassik.com), “Performance: 10. …an incredibly beautiful, excellent recording...”(Dutch magazine Luister).

- "Le Nuove Musiche easily withstands the comparison with most renowned ensembles in this particular repertoire. We hear it all: great singing talent, strong imagination, pure textual fidelity and diction, sharp-edged articulation in addition to a smooth phrasing, the ever-rhythmic rhythm with its striking stakes and that perfect sense of balance.” (Opus).
