The figure of Andrea Gabrieli has been reappraised as of the last twenty years of the twentieth century. Less famous, less studied and less performed than Palestrina and Lasso, Andrea Gabrieli has a smaller production of vocal music than his celebrated sixteenth-century ”peers”, but the catalogue of his works is more diversified, with compositions in different genres (vocal sacred and profane, compositions for numbers of instruments, keyboard). In the Masses Andrea Gabrieli confirms his skill in counterpoint writing, masters the technique of composition and expounds the cantus firmus in the four voices, not limiting himself to the application of a technique but varying it time after time. A world première recording.
