De Profundis - Morales: Missa Ave Maria, Missa Si bona suscepimus & Magnificat tertii toni (2026) [Hi-Res]

Continuing its acclaimed series, De Profundis presents Morales Missa Ave Maria, Missa Si bona suscepimus, and the Magnificat tertii toni. Morales wrote music of sublime nobility and powerful expression with flowing melodic lines, transparent yet intricate polyphony and expressive harmonic colour. Regarded as a master by his contemporaries and described as the light of Spain in music, Morales was the first Spanish composer to achieve truly international fame and helped establish Spain as a major centre of sacred polyphonic music in the 16th century. De Profundis is a hand-picked vocal ensemble that performs continental Renaissance sacred music at the original low pitch, using the all-adult-male forces appropriate to the period. Conducted alternately by Robert Hollingworth and Eamonn Dougan, the group will release 10 albums on CORO over the next decade, completing their exploration of Morales work.
