This release sees the conclusion of Delitić Musicć’s monumental project of recording Monteverdi’s complete Madrigals in nine volumes, with the first volume goes back to 2002 (8555307).
Many of the releases in this series were highly acclaimed by critics. Vol.2 (8555308) received a 10/10 score from ClassicsToday.com: ‘These unusual all-male Monteverdi madrigal performances are turning out to be the versions of choice – definitely worth serious attention.’
The sixth and seventh volumes (855531213 and 855531416) were both American Record Guide Critic’s Choice awardees. Commenting on Book 6, critic Catherine Moore said the ‘performances are compelling, simultaneously controlled and imaginative. Delitić Musicć goes beyond a ‘fine rendering’ of Monteverdi’s intentions.’
The group has also recorded Carlo Gesualdo’s complete Madrigals for Naxos (available as a seven-album set on 8507013). Of the first volume AllMusic.com wrote: ‘Delitić Musicć’s unity of expression and steady control help keep the music coherent and within the bounds of communicable feeling.’ Of the boxed set, Lynn René Bayley of Fanfare asked: ‘do you really need to have this complete set? Based on both the high quality of the music as well as the performances, I would say yes…’
