“A la dolce ombra de le belle frondi” (Fourth Book of Madrigals no. 2) for 8-part mixed choir

Ego flos campi

Rise up, My Love

Scattered Rhymes

Surge, propera amica mea

Duo ubera tua

Lasso ch’i ardo

Surge amica mea

Vulnerasti cor meum

Vadam et circumibo

Approved

The Song of Songs plunges us into a lush world of ripe fruits, deep waters, scorching heats, and cooling shades. This intense imagery — the Hebrew Bible’s richest and most succulent — drives poetry that is both straightforwardly erotic and tantalisingly allegorical in its exploration of love both human and divine. This heady combination invites a huge range of approaches, from Biana Maria Furgeri’s flowing Ego flos campi for upper voices to Tomás Luis de Victoria’s epic, six-part Vadam et circumibo civitatem.
