Claudio Monteverdi - Magnificat (complete)

Claudio Giovanni Antonio Monteverdi (Italian pronunciation: [ˈklaudjo monteˈverdi]; 15 May 1567 (baptized) -- 29 November 1643) was an Italian composer, gambist, and singer.
Monteverdi's work, often regarded as revolutionary, marked the transition from the Renaissance style of music to that of the Baroque period. He developed two individual styles of composition -- the heritage of Renaissance polyphony and the new basso continuo technique of the Baroque. Monteverdi wrote one of the earliest operas, L'Orfeo, an innovative work that is still regularly performed. He was recognized as an innovative composer and enjoyed considerable fame in his lifetime.

Capolavoro assoluto di un genio musicale unico: Claudio Monteverdi...

this is simply amazing. Imagine telling this man in the 1600's that one day on a platform called youtube, 400 years later people would be listening on computers through headphones. Amazing, what an honor to be human. What an honor to be alive during such an opportune time to relish in the history of arts, of all kinds.

che meraviglioso capolavoro. è vero che la musica può elevare lo spirito. ....e quanto bisogno ne abbiamo oggi. ...più monteverdi meno facebock

[@JasLoney]

From the first moment I heard this celestial music, I was convinced it was the most important and profound music I would ever hear. 40 years later I do not think otherwise. Written by the composer to the Virgin Mary after his wife of many years died, written by a composer covered in boils and pustules, written by a man who knew suffering and hoped for redemption. Utterly amazing. Utterly dazzingly. Utterly unexpected and beyond most anything another human being could conceive of (except Shakespeare's King Lear, almost an exact contemporaneous composition)

[@hermesnoelthefourthway]

Great comment. "beyond what any other human being could conceive". I like how you bring together the supernatural achievements of king lear with Monteverdi 's Magnificat. I'd add into that the last three operas of Richard Wagner. Especially Parsifal. Best wishes, Noel

Way back in the day, when I was just learning about classical music - baroque and renaissance was lumped in there too - someone told me that Monteverdi is the one early-music composer that will always retain the power to astound and astonish to the present day. And this was the recording on which I first heard this performed.

He didn't have it easy which as we know makes the creative responses more intense and intense this is! Western civilization gives us this music and all manner of significant achievement and keeps us sharp amidst a rotund and ambiguous flotilla of disrespectful deceivers.
