Blue Heron presents: In Praise of Laura Peverara: Madrigals for the Concerto delle donne (Ferrara, 1580s)
Blue Heron Renaissance Choir Inc.
In the 1580s, Ferrara boasted one of the most famous vocal ensembles in Europe: a trio of women known as the Concerto delle donne. One member, Laura Peverara, was so admired and beloved that she inspired two madrigal anthologies, published in 1582 and 1583. We present a selection of this rich repertoire, including music by Wert, Marenzio, Luzzaschi, and others.
