Product description

Dive into the intricate world of Renaissance music with Thomas Morley's "Fantasies to Two Voices," a captivating collection of nine instrumental pieces that showcase the composer's mastery of the form. Released on April 28, 2020, under Astres Records, this album is a testament to Morley's contributions to the English Madrigal School, offering a glimpse into the musical landscape of the late 16th century.

Performed by the talented duo of Jonathan Dunford and Jérôme Chaboseau, the album spans a concise yet engaging 21 minutes. Each track, from the melancholic "Il doloroso" to the lively "La caccia," is a unique exploration of mood and melody, demonstrating Morley's skill in crafting pieces that are both technically impressive and emotionally resonant.

Originally published in 1595, these fantasies are not just historical artifacts but also timeless pieces of art that continue to captivate audiences today. Whether you're a seasoned enthusiast of early music or a newcomer eager to explore the rich tapestry of the Renaissance period, this album offers an enchanting journey through the sounds and styles of a bygone era.
