The Choir of Girton College, Cambridge, continues it's pioneering exploration of the music of the Italian Renaissance master Marc'Antonio Ingegneri (c. 1535/36-92) with a journey through the liturgical year, as mirrored in Ingegneri's motets. A 'concept album' of Renaissance polyphony may be an unusual undertaking, but this one illustrates how Ingegneri took his lead from the emotions implicit in each major celebration of the church - from sorrow and awe to joy and jubilation - expressed in music of extraordinary beauty, belying the internal complexity that gives it it's emotional power.
