Antonio De Cabezón: Obras De Musica
Label: RICERCAR Catalog: RIC335 Format: CD Doulce MemoireAntonio de Cabezón (1510-1566) Hernando de Cabezón, the son of the renowned organist Antonio de Cabezón, published a vast anthology of his father's compositions under the title of Obras de Musica para tecla, arpa y vihuela. For keyboard and plucked string instruments, these pieces include works in every genre of the period, both sacred and secular, and perfectly written for four, five or six parts. In accordance with a performance practice common from the time of the Renaissance onwards, the musicians of Doulce Mémoire divide the works' polyphonic lines between the instruments of the ensemble. They decided to choose only secular works, these being ornamented pieces based on various songs and madrigals, of which Suzanne un jour and Anchor che col partire were amongst the most popular of the Renaissance period.
