Frech, a Catalan monk-composer active in the Kingdom of Aragon in the eastern Iberian Peninsula, composed polyphonic music in various languages while serving the daughters of Charles I (Emperor Charles V). In particular, the Spanish secular music known as “ensalada” (meaning “salad” in Spanish)—with its humorous, alluring, and dynamic content—possesses a flavor unlike any other, and has been performed by many early music singers to date. This new recording by four up-and-coming singers active on the Iberian Peninsula offers a rich interpretation that allows listeners to enjoy both the clear, accessible delivery that effectively conveys the flavor of the lyrics and the thrilling musical development. It allows us to once again appreciate the depth of Renaissance music unique to Spain—which differs from the polyphonic works of composers from other regions, such as Palestrina, Lassus, and Gabrieli—and allows us to once again appreciate the depth of Renaissance music unique to Spain, which offers a distinct flavor from the polyphonic works of composers from other regions. The second half of the album also features two Christmas pieces in Latin and Spanish. This is an album that allows listeners to fully savor the unique style of the composer, Flecha.\nNaxos Japan\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ambronay Editions","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53374653071649,"sku":"4589538783099","price":2511.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/4589538783099.jpg?v=1787632205","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/products\/4589538783099","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
