Paul Agnew and his team of singers have devoted themselves, for three seasons, to the complete madrigals of one of the most romantic composers in the history of music: Carlo Gesualdo. The 2020 - 2021 season sees the very end of the cycle with, in February, this sixth and final book of the cycle.

"  We will put the madrigals in context by associating them with the music of his contemporaries, tracing the emergence of the chromatic madrigal and, to some extent, attempting to understand how Gesualdo eventually came to write, at the very end. of his life, a music which today continues to shock and fascinate. Sometimes perceived as a madman having totally lost his reason, Gesualdo was in fact an artist who followed his own logic of creation and contributed to pushing the possibilities of musical expression to its extreme limits.


Count Gesualdo is at the same time a self-proclaimed violent murderer, a devout and repentant Christian, a member of the nobility and a published composer. He is therefore a complex and contradictory figure, which plays a key role in this pivotal period that is the beginning of the 17th century: his contribution is fundamental in the affirmation of a new, dramatic and modern music - the “Seconda prattica ”.
