Josquin des Prez: the name evokes beautiful, brilliant, even magical music--but more than five centuries since he composed his last note, we are still discovering how to hear him. In this album, originally conceived to mark the composer's quincentenary in 2021, Cut Circle strives to treat Josquin not as a sleepy relic of the distant past but as a stylish, sensitive, playful, ecstatic composer. We foreground his revolutionary precision and drive while embracing reactions to the music that are visceral and emotional.
