Andrew Lawrence-King (medieval harp) Gothic Voices The award wining and worldwide famous vocal ensemble Gothic Voices travel to Italy and the origins of its impressive polyphonic music: A Laurel for Landini – 14th Century Italy’s Greatest Composer. This disc presents the group performing music by the Italian composer Francesco Landini, one of the most prominent and influential composers of that time and one of the most important for the development of later forms of close harmonic chanting – the forerunner of the famous Madrigal that would flourish later in the 16th century. This disc not only sets out the panorama of the time and the genius of Landini himself but also works by his contemporaries. Here Gothic Voices collaborate with the worldwide acclaimed harpist Andrew Lawrence-King . This is an important release that will appeal to those interested in singing and early choral music to discover a whole new set and experiments from a composer that helped create the choral forms that later revolutionized the whole of western music. |

Gothic Voices, directed by Christopher Page ‘These performances reach an unrivalled level of excellence … and show just how marvellous medieval music can be’ (BBC Record Review) “Enthusiasm abounds in this landmark recording, sometimes overwhelmingly. The textless or partially-texted vocalisations that cocoon the poetry occasionally tip over into jarringly reedy vocal lines. Subtleties elsewhere - generally in Andrew Lawrence-King's playing - compensate for occasional longeurs.” BBC Music Magazine, July 2008 *** | | | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days. |
