Qute beautiful pperformanes

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Composers of polyphonic sacred music flourished in Portugal for many centuries before the flowering in the seventeenth century composers who gained international reputation Manuel Cardosa and Duarte Lobo. As always Naxos provides great notes that describe the composers and their works. My personal favorite is Cardoso's Lamentation which very moving and well performed by the Scandinavian ensemble Ars Nova led by Bo Holten. Other highlights include two short motets by Lobo that are both quite beautiful an the Missa O Soberona lux by Magalhaes. I would recommend this recording to anyone interested in early music"
