In jazz today, they would be called "standards", the madrigals and motets of the Renaissance upon which the great musicians of the time improvised. The internationally active trombonist Ercole Nisini wants to revive this incredibly vital music-making practice on his new GENUIN CD: He interprets written-down improvisations from old sources but also improvises and composes anew on themes of the time. The list of composers on this exciting CD reads like a Who's Who of the most famous musicians of the 16th and 17th centuries: Palestrina, Monteverdi, Frescobaldi, de Rore, and many more! "Love Songs" from a bygone era – yet therefore no less thrilling than today's love songs...
