Composer of the Week Podcast Folgen

Donald Macleod explores the rise and fall of the Venetian School, the group of composers who helped make sixteenth-century Venice one of the musical capitals of Europe. As the Republic's political and commercial influence began to wane, its cultural life flourished. Music spilled out from churches, confraternities, publishing houses and civic celebrations, while St Mark's Basilica became the focal point of a distinctive and influential musical tradition. From the arrival of Adrian Willaert to the contributions of Cipriano de Rore, Andrea Gabrieli, Giovanni Gabrieli and their contemporaries, Donald traces a period of extraordinary innovation, rivalry and artistic ambition, set against the ceremonies, politics and myths of the Most Serene Republic.Presented by Donald MacleodProduced by Sam Phillips for BBC Audio WalesFor full track listings, including artist and recording details, and to listen to the pieces featured in full (for 30 days after broadcast) head to the series page for The Venetian School: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00320zwAnd you can delve into the A-Z of all the composers we’ve featured on Composer of the Week here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/articles/3cjHdZlXwL7W41XGB77X3S0/composers-a-to-zMusic featured includes:Giovanni Gabrieli: O Magnum MysteriumClaudio Merulo: Benedicam DominumFrancesco Canova da Milano: Fantasia No. 19 "Bellissima"Adrian Willaert: Vecchie LetroseAdrian Willaert: Infelix egoClaudio Merulo: Toccata VIIIAdrian Willaert: Veni Sancte SpiritusAdrian Willaert: Lauda Jerusalem DominumClaudio Merulo: Cumque beatissimus Marcus EvangelistaAdrian Willaert: Vespro della Beata Vergine: Dixit DominusCipriano de Rore: De le belle contrade d'orienteJacques Buus: RicercareGiovanni Bassano: Deus qui beatum MarcumGiovanni Bassano: La rose (after Willaert)Cipriano de Rore: Missa Praeter rerum seriem – Credo; Sanctus & BenedictusAndrea Gabrieli: Asia felice hor ben posso chiamarmiCipriano de Rore: Descendi in Hortum MeumGioseffo Zarlino: Modulationes per Philippum de MonteAndrea Gabrieli: Missa Vexilla Regis – Gloria & CredoAndrea Gabrieli: Ricercar VIIBaldassare Donato: Chi la gagliardaGioseffo Zarlino: Adiuro vos, filiaeGiovanni Gabrieli: Sacrae Symphoniae – Canzon III a 4Andrea Gabrieli: Egredimini videteGiovanni Gabrieli: Canzon duodecimi toniAndrea Gabrieli: Ecco Vinegia bellaGioseffo Zarlino: Pater noster, Ave MariaAndrea Gabrieli: Gloria a 16Giovanni Gabrieli: Magnificat, C75Baldassare Donato: Viva sempreGiovanni Croce: In spiritu humilitatisGiovanni Gabrieli: Deus qui beatum MarcumGiovanni Gabrieli: Sonata XX a 22Giovanni Croce: Quaeramus cum pastoribusGiovanni Bassano: Tota pulchra esGiovanni Gabrieli: KyrieGiovanni Gabrieli: O quam suavisGiulio Cesare Martinengo: Regum MundiGiovanni Gabrieli: Litaniae Beatae Mariae Virginis, C63
