In 1987, William Christie recorded many excerpts from  Monteverdi 's collection  Selva morale e spirituale . Thirty years later, he returns to these pages where voce sola alternates with the densest polyphonies.

Musical director and founder of Les Arts Florissants, William Christie had recorded in 1987 a memorable album composed of extracts from Selva morale e spirituale by Claudio Monteverdi. This time he conducts this corpus from his harpsichord. Emmanuelle de Negri 's voce sola alternates with more elaborate polyphonies, within a set of eight voices. One year after participating in the Messiah concertby Handel, the soprano Emmanuelle de Negri returns to the Grande Salle Pierre Boulez to shed light on this "moral and spiritual forest" which the author brought out in Venice in 1641 and whose importance is all the greater because it is of the last collection printed during his lifetime. In introduction to the concert, William Christie proposes a meeting at 7 p.m. in the Conference Room.
