Carlo Gesualdo was a prince, a murderer, and an intensely expressive composer: his madrigals use a chromatic language that is utterly distinctive - even to the modern ear, his work is bizarre and compelling. ETO stages a series of atmospheric concerts of his motets, and in particular his vivid Tenebrae Music, performed by 6 male voices; this music for voices only will be performed with readings from the composer s very intense letters and journals, to make for a compelling entertainment.| 19 Nov 11 | Northcott Theatre Exeter, Devon Performance Details => Venue archive |
