Our Take

COLLEGIUM MARIANUM's latest offering, "Zelenka: Lamentatio Zwv53," is like a musical rollercoaster through the depths of sorrow and despair. This Czech baroque composer may not be a household name, but trust me, he packs a punch with this one.

From the haunting opening lament of "Come, beloved" to the heart-wrenching cries of "O how I cry," COLLEGIUM MARIANUM takes you on a journey through the seven stages of grief in just under an hour. The exquisite vocal performances combined with the lush orchestration create a truly immersive experience that will leave you emotionally drained yet strangely invigorated.

The highlight of the album has to be the soprano's stunning rendition of "My tears, like waterfalls," which will have you reaching for the tissues in no time. The raw emotion in her voice is palpable, and you can't help but be drawn in by the sheer power of her delivery.

Overall, "Zelenka: Lamentatio Zwv53" is a must-listen for any classical music enthusiast looking to explore the darker, more introspective side of the genre. COLLEGIUM MARIANUM has once again proven why they are a force to be reckoned with in the world of period performance. Don't sleep on this album – it's a gem waiting to be discovered.
