Here's the listening list for March 2nd.

There is lots of Gesualdo to listen to. I picked these because they are performed on a VERY interesting documentary by Werner Herzog called Gesualdo: Death in Five Voices. You can rent this from Netflix. It's one hour long and bizarre like...we can talk about it on the 2nd.

Carlo Gesualdo - Five part madrigals
Book 4 #3 Io tacero..."
I found 2 versions on itunes, one is performed by Claudio Cavina & La Venexiana, the other by Ensemble Arte-Musica.

Book 6 #17 "Moro lasso..."
On itunes, this is represented by Canadian Brass and The King's Noyse. I recommend listening to both.

Tenebrae Responsories for Holy Saturday: III. Plange quasi virgo

Ingram Marshall - Fog Tropes
If you're looking on itunes, search under "Ingram Marshall (b. 1942) Fog Tropes (LP version). It's on a CD called American Elegies.

Also available is Fog Tropes II for the Kronos Quartet. If you can, listen to both and  we'll talk about them.

Remember, no experience necessary, no need to buy scores or have a music degree, just a desire to listen and talk. We'll meet in the chat room on Friday March 2 at 10:00am (CST).
