Series about and with Catalan gambist and conductor Jordi Savall. Spotlight on his CD book Dinastia Borgia, part 3 and ending.
Francesco Borja, who was declared holy later in his life, was born in Gandia, Spain, 500 years ago in 2010. On that occasion AliaVox released a CD box with profane and religious music from the era of the Borgias. On these 3 Cds, Jordi Savall collected music from earlier recordings, which mainly originated in Andalusia and Italy.
This third episode contains compositions from the era of battles and treaties this dynasty of kings was part of, but also from the time of the Counter Reformation in which the holy Francesco Borgia (1510-1572) played the principal role as leader of the Jesuits.
The programme is completed by five tracks of the older CD España Antigua (1991).
