Author: Iain Fenlon
Jerome Bassano, for example, was baptized in England, spent time in the King's Musick, and ended up the very model of a landed gentleman; his two five-voice fantasias are thoroughly English in idiom, pleasant and undemanding to listen to but in essence performers' music. The heart of the record is not with these latter-day Bassanos, but rather with Giovanni and his Venetian contemporaries, Monteverdi and the Gabrielis. Here there are some very fine things indeed. The overall sound is rich and muscular, and speeds have for the most part been chosen with a careful eye to overall architecture. Giovanni Bassano himself is a more interesting composer than has been generally recognized, and his setting of Deus qui beatum Marcum is a masterly exercise in the Venetian antiphonal manner; its carefully-controlled and well-shaped performance here only whets one's appetite for more. Occasionally there are miscalculations; the magical opening of Giovanni Gabrieli's O magnum mysterium has more of the character of a pronouncement than of the growing sense of wonder that the music suggests, and I don't think that there is much of a musical (or indeed historical) case for all the added ornamentation in Monteverdi's Beatus vir. But at its best, as in the quite stunning performance of Giovanni Gabrieli's Omnes gentes, this record is first rate.'
