An exaustive XVIIth century musical selection from the “Marche”, long run with the “Cantar lontano” technique (to sing at a certain distance from each other). The mottetti from Ignazio Donati and Pietro Pace, with the music of Luigi Battiferri, join together in new compositions even bewildering for that time. This recording marks the debut of the Sacro & Profano group, who on this occasion experimented an extremely innovative approach, taking this opportunity provided by performing music never before played in modern times. This record has been awarded with the “CD Audiofile” by the Italian magazine “Fedeltà del Suono” and it will give you moments of rare suggestion.

“Musica nelle Marche…” is one of the most beautiful recordings of Italian Baroque music that I have ever heard. I loved it from the very first notes. The recording is so clear, one can sense the size of the church. The music itself is absolutely wonderful. It makes me wonder who the “great” composers really are.
Congratulations to everyone involved. Mille grazie.
