Customer Reviews:

Glorious Italian Renaissance Reissue.......2006-04-14

Really happy to have found and purchased this reissue on Sony classical of "Gesualdo- highlights of his Madrigals, Galliards, Canzonettas". Features beautiful remastered performances in the early opera style(Opera was born in the mid to late Renaissance), with string instrumental interludes. May seem somewhat "sedate" to modern early music listeners, but I find it adds to it's charm- perfect background music for reading or relaxing. If you've ever seen "The Agony & The Estasy" (Michalangelo-Charlton Heston) similar music is performed during a banquet scene. 5 stars.

Why was this reissued?.......2005-12-09

Luckily, I only blew about seven bucks on this CD. I can't figure out why this was reissued, although it probably has to do the the big names involved. The vocal performances are not only rough around the edges, but rather under-characterized. But they are spectacular compared with the string performances, which can be described as amateurish at best.

I will not be buying this disk.......2005-01-09

These singers come from the grand opera tradition and they do not seem to have been able to adapt their voices to the stylistic rigours needed to perform Gesualdo's works. The reviewers who stated that the tuning is poor, are correct. We actually listened to these first few bars with the score in hand, and it was totally obvious that the pitch, intonation and timing was very poor.

I'm sorry, but even by chromatic standards it's out of tune........2001-11-20

Yes, these performances are mostly _really_ out of tune even considering the chromatic adventures of Gesualdo. Frankly I'd rather hear other performances, though I haven't seen lots of other Gesualdo collections out there. This is a nice historical recording and has a broad range of Gesualdo's works, so it still might be worthwhile.

The chromatic nature of Gesualdo's music is even more shocking when performed in tune.

Wonderful!.......2001-09-06

My heart skipped a beat when I saw this recording was available on CD... I used to have it on vinyl 25 years ago when I was in college, and nearly wore it out. (In fact, I think I did replace it at least once!)

This is wonderful music, lovingly performed. I agree, as an earlier reviewer complains, that the singers are occasionally not in tune, but ... does one want to complain that Casals is not worth listening to because he couldn't play in tune? I think our ears in this day and age have become spoiled by over-edited and electronically perfected recordings. This recording is thrilling and delightful for precisely the reason that these great singers (look at the names!) got together to record some excellent 5-part vocal music, and did not (obviously) go back and re-record every little moment that didn't go smoothly. It feels much like attending a live performance.

The music of Gesualdo is extraordinary in it's own right, of course, with harmonies that presage Wagner a couple of hundred years ahead of schedule. This recording, with solo voices on each of the 5 parts, let's us really hear all the subtleties of the intricate voice leading that Gesualdo accomplishes.

Good, but showing its age a little.......1998-09-16

Ignore the 1997 release date, this recording dates from 1972 when there were few Schutz recordings available. Although the performance stands up well, Archiv do not endear themselves by again reissuing this venerable set at near to full price. For most listeners the recent complete Bernius set on the DHM label (also available at Amazon.com for a couple of dollars more) would be a better choice. On the other hand those that like the full blown 'cathedral and choirboy' sound will love Schneidt. The music itself is simply beautiful; once described by a Gramophone reviewer as a "celestial disco".
