Monteverdi’s Venetian Vespers of 1641

During Monteverdi’s 30 year tenure as Maestro di Cappella of St. Mark’s Basilica in Venice, he did not publish any sacred choral music until the very end. This single publication, Selva Morale et Spirituali, contains music that Monteverdi chose to represent the very best of his illustrious career. In collaboration with the Kansas City Baroque Consortium, Te Deum brought to life this music of deep faith, infectious charm, and musical virtuosity.
