Forgotten Pedal/ Various - Forgotten Pedal / Various

This recording juxtaposes two contrasting classical musical styles: Bruce Prince-Joseph performs Vivaldi, Bach and Mozart on a two-manual pedal harpsichord and the Hufstader Singers perform largely 16th century madrigal works from England, France and Italy. One highlight contributed by the madrigal ensemble is the first recorded performance of Barber's Three Reincarnations, a modern take on Renaissance polyphony.
