Music reviews of Isabel I, Reina de Castilla [Hybrid SACD]
Music Review: One of Jordi Savall's best concept albums
Rating: 5 Stars
This CD is like a soundtrack (and a thoughtful one at that) to a movie of the life of Isabel I. We are taken on a journey through the historical events taking place in her lifetime. The CD starts takes us from:
a beautiful anonymous piece: "Exultet Caelum laudibus",
a jaunty Turkish tune (recognising the signficiant events of 1453 and the fall of Byzantium. This is important because the CD takes the islamic theme up again near the end with a beautiful lament for the expelled muslims showing a kind of symmetry; and
finishing on a a beautiful requiem by Pedro de Escobar.
In many ways this is an extrordinary album with its range of musical styles - Gregorian chant influenced music, sacred music for the mass and the most beautiful folk like tunes togehter with eastern inspired music.
This all leads to a very moving experience!
