Our Take

Philippe Herreweghe's latest album, Gesualdo/Responsoria 1611, takes listeners on a wild and unexpected journey through the hauntingly beautiful music of Carlo Gesualdo. Known for his unconventional harmonies and dark, emotional lyrics, Gesualdo's work is not for the faint of heart.

Herreweghe's interpretation of Gesualdo's Responsoria 1611 is nothing short of spellbinding. From the opening notes of "Tenebrae Responsoria I" to the eerie tones of "Tenebrae Responsoria IX," each track is a masterpiece of Renaissance music. Herreweghe's attention to detail and emotional depth brings a fresh perspective to these ancient compositions, breathing new life into them for modern audiences.

The album is a rollercoaster of emotions, with moments of intense beauty and heartbreaking despair. Herreweghe's mastery of the material is evident in every note, drawing listeners in with his expressive phrasing and dynamic interpretation.

While Gesualdo's music may not be everyone's cup of tea, Herreweghe's innovative approach to these timeless works is sure to appeal to even the most skeptical of listeners. Gesualdo/Responsoria 1611 is a must-listen for fans of early music and anyone looking for a musical experience that is both challenging and rewarding. So buckle up, because this album is a wild ride you won't soon forget.
