I FURIOSI's CD CRAZY was launched in September of 2008 on the Dorian/Sono Luminus label. Music around the subject of insanity.
Stylish in both sound and appearance, I Furiosi Baroque Ensemble performs instrumental and vocal musicfrom mediaeval chant to the apex of the High Baroque. In-depth research coupled with striking invention culminate in a powerful interpretation of the languages and the music. The ensemble unearths music that is rarely heard on stage, and performs it with a relevance to today's society which is unmatched by Early Music groups worldwide.
This programme is meant to take the audience through the rise and fall of a life. It begins with the pleasant sounds of music, song and morning. It works through pubescent drama toward the resignation of adulthood and the sometime despondency of middle age. The programme closes with the acquiescence to death or sleep. Thus, it Swells, Bursts and Dyes.
