Album Introduction

A rare repertoire of Italian composer Benedetto Marcello, born in the late 17th century and active in the early 18th century. Marcello's music is strongly influenced by Vivaldi, and although there are often many works with amazing techniques, they are usually original and fantastic in their own style. This Venetian-style requiem is also a work that shows Marcello's unique composition and style. It is worth a call to understand this unusual piece, a Venetian musician, which starts with a strangely death bell. B. Marcello: Venetian requiem, Performance: Accademia de Li Muzic, Conductor: Filippo Maria Bressan (CHAN 0637)
