Artist Biography
Carlo Gesualdo, also known as the Prince of Venosa, was an Italian composer and nobleman born in 1566. He is best known for his innovative and experimental madrigals and sacred music compositions. Gesualdo's music is characterized by its intense chromaticism, expressive harmonies, and bold use of dissonance, which set him apart from his contemporaries. Gesualdo's personal life was as dramatic as his music. He was involved in a tumultuous and scandalous marriage, which ended in tragedy when he discovered his wife in an affair and murdered her and her lover in a fit of jealousy. Despite this dark episode, Gesualdo continued to compose music and became a prominent figure in the late Renaissance music scene. The Consort Of Musicke is a renowned early music ensemble founded by Anthony Rooley in 1969. Specializing in performing music from the Renaissance and Baroque periods, The Consort Of Musicke has garnered critical acclaim for their authentic interpretations and innovative programming. Anthony Rooley, a respected lutenist and conductor, has led the ensemble to international success, showcasing the beauty and complexity of early music for audiences around the world.
