Vespro della Beata Vergine

SKU: BR.EOS-8024-23

ISBN 9790004789506. 8.5 x 11.5 inches.

Monteverdi' s Vespers of 1610 is a work which has both fascinated and perplexed musicologists and performers for many years. It forms by far the larger part of the composer's first significant publication of sacred music, entitled: Of the most blessed virgin a Mass for six voices for church choirs, and Vespers for more voices with several sacred concertos suitable for princely chapels or apartments. By the time this publication appeared, Monteverdi had been in the service of the Gonzaga court at MantUrauffuhrung for at least 18 years, and he was seeking a change of employment, so that the dedication of the volume to the reigning pope, Paul V, may be interpreted as a form of self-advertisement. Originally issued as an Urtext study score, the edition is based closely on the extant printed source, the set of partbooks published at Venice in 1610, and retains the original note values, key and mensuration signatures.

As with scarcely any other work of the 17th century, Monteverdi's Vespers has found its way into today's repertoire. Nevertheless, the Vespers still leaves open many questions. The new edition, with its critical examination of the sources, takes up these oft-discussed issues concerning scoring possibilities, performance practice, transpositions and liturgical unity. It is based on all of the surviving copies of the print of 1610 and the earliest handwritten entries have also been critically examined and evaluated. Performance material is organized in a flexible manner to allow for the use of different instruments in those movements without obbligato instruments in order to reinforce the vocal parts and thus invites an individual musical approach to the challenge presented by Monteverdi's Vespers. Score and parts available separately - see item CA.2780100.

In many performances of Monteverdi's magnificent Vespers of the Blessed Virgin the Lauda Jerusalem and the Magnificat movements, which lie in a high tessitura, are transposed downwards. So that these can also be performed with the highly-acclaimed Carus edition, we offer both these movements individually a fourth lower. Vocal score, chorus score, and parts for this are also all available separately. Score and part available separately - see item CA.2780100.
