oratorio di san filippo neri

Odhecaton

 

Paolo Da Col

conductor

The resonances of 16th-century polyphony are endless and, through the centuries, they reach the present day. Paolo Da Col and Odhecaton capture them with their usual expertise, presenting a highly original project that plays with reflections, echoes, and contrasts between the musical liturgy of Palestrina and contemporary music. The main structure of the program consists of the Messa Illumina oculos meos, which appears in a manuscript preserved in the Apostolic Chapel, where the famous Missa Papae Marcelli is also found. On this foundation, the influences drawn by composers such as Pärt, Rihm, Stravinsky, and Scelsi from sacred texts of the past are interwoven.
