An extraordinary recording based on the famous middle-age manuscript Codex Faenza. Extraordinary for the thrilling interpretation of this often obscure and remote musical language. Extraordinary for it's continuous and seamless capacity of captivating the listener, who never gets tired nor bored. Extraordinary for the quality of the sound of the oldest extant organ (Valere, Switzerland - 1435). This daring project owes it's allure to the musicological knowledge and the musical prowess of the interpreters, of the recording engineer and producer. The well thought-out alternance of colours, instruments and climats (keyboards, flutes and voices) allow an enjoyable listening throughout. L'Amorosa Caccia is led by Fabio Antonio Falcone, already responsible for the Preis der Deutschen Schallplattenkritik recording of Sweelinck's harpsichord music (CC 72926).
