Info for Arcadelt: Motteti - Madrigali - Chansons

In 2018, the year in which we celebrate the 450th anniversary of the death of Jacques Arcadelt, Ricercar releases a box set of three albums covering the principal genres that made his name – the madrigal, the chanson and sacred music – with three prestigious ensembles. Arcadelt was in the service of the Medici, the Papacy and the kings of France; can one imagine a more prestigious list of achievements? Esteemed by Michelangelo, celebrated by Ronsard, he benefited from a large number of editions that made his reputation in the main European musical centres of his time, and was still admired at the height of the Baroque era.

Although named in every history of music as an important composer and as one of the creators of the Italian madrigal, principally known for the madrigal Il bianco e dolce cigno and even more so by an incorrectly attributed Ave Maria that amateur choirs have been performing since the Romantic period, Jacques Arcadelt has not yet gained the position that he deserves in the musical world of today. He was in the service of the Medici, the papacy and the kings of France; he could hardly have had a more impressive career. The recording sessions for this set created a real emotional shock on several occasions: we were convinced that Jacques Arcadelt was a true genius and it was easy to understand why his contemporaries regarded him as truly exceptional.
