LA Huella Del Minotauro

Flamenco singing and 'fandango' here looks serious, popular and committed in 'El Cabrero' voice. Still in his maturity as a singer retains his thrust, his claw and his proximity to the listeners. Social and lyrical feeling, strength and transparency, commitment and truth in his message always let you enjoy her singing. In this CD, one of the first of his discography, provides a sample of his mastery of the 'fandango'.

The only surviving version of Carlo Gesualdo’s First Book of Madrigals was printed in Spring 1594 by the typographer Vincenzo Baldini. At the time, the composer was twenty-eight years old and had just left behind the murder of his wife, in 1590. In this first publication Gesualdo probably collected pieces composed earlier than 1591. The music is written by a young author, far away from the better-known experimental composer of later years, yet is clear and faultless, and often very effective.
