MDR-Musiksommer: Heimliche Liebe 2

In the organizer's words:

Secret love - madrigals and songs from six centuries by Carlo Gesualdo, Orlando di Lasso, Robert Schumann, Max Reger and many others.

Members of the MDR Radio Choir

Sebastian Reim | Conductor

The artful beauty of madrigals from the early Baroque period still enchants fans of polyphonic singing today. The splendid and intimate "sound speeches" of Gesualdo or Lasso radiated their effect into the romantic vocal art of the 19th and even the vocal music of the 20th century. The members of the MDR Radio Choir succeed in tracing these developments in an impressive manner. Their program thus combines works from almost 600 years of choral music - a highly entertaining sound journey for the audience.
