Marvelously expressive and complex madrigals by the unique Barbara Strozzi and her counterpart, the original bad boy of the Italian Renaissance Carlo Gesualdo. Experience them alongside a selection of chromatic madrigals by Madalena Casulana, who in 1568 published the first printed work by a woman in western music history, and by Orlando di Lasso who conducted one of her madrigals at the court of Albert V, Duke of Bavaria in Munich; In her dedication to Isabella de' Medici she writes: "[;;;;;I];;;;; want to show the world, as much as I can in this profession of music, the vain error of men that they alone possess the gifts of intellect and artistry, and that such gifts are never given to women." With Catherine Liddell, theorbo/lute/baroque guitar.
