Notes and Editorial Reviews

Seven women composers, all new to the current catalogue, their music exquisitely sung – a delightful find. Impassioned monodic motets with colourful continuo contrast with four-part settings, bass (sometimes tenor too) transposed up to fit the female voices of a nunnery choir.

Performance: 5 (out of 5), Sound: 5 (out of 5)
