TOMÁS LUIS DE VICTORIA MISSA PRO DEFUNCTIS SCHOLA CANTORUM VENERANDAE FABRICAE
MONS. MASSIMO PALOMBELLA
The Schola Cantorum Venerandae Fabricae presents its debut album dedicated to Tomás Luis de Victoria.
The ensemble, founded in 2025 by the Veneranda Fabbrica del Duomo di Milano, is conducted by Mons. Massimo Palombella, former Director of the Sistine Chapel Choir and winner of the 2016 ECHO Klassik Award for Cantate Domino (Deutsche Grammophon).
Recorded in the choir area of Milan Cathedral, the album brings together source research, Renaissance performance practice and the cathedral's acoustics.
At the heart of the project is the Missa pro defunctis for four voices, published in Rome in 1583, together with three funeral responsories from 1583 and 1592, of which only one previous recording exists, alongside other works by Victoria.
