Toelichting:
Caspar Hassler published two important books with motets called Sacræ Harmoniæ and Sacrarum Harmoniarum Continuatio (sequel to the first book of Sacred Harmonies). The motets in the first book are all available elsewhere on the internet. From the second book I chose the motets to transcribe that are still mostly unknown. Although the composers of these motets are unknown by the greater public, they are of a beauty seldom heard. Especially the 8-voiced, bichoral ones show the influence of the Venetian school, and are monumental. Names like Bianciardi, Vecchi, Molinaro, Felis, Donato, Massaino, Marenzio and Palestrina (also called Prænestinus) are more or less familiar, and some of their work is already available in the Donemus Early Music series, but names like Capilupi, Schöndorff, Sartorio, Berti and Neandro do not often ring a bell. And yet they deserve to be heard and rediscovered.
The last part in the original book is a trichoral Mass for 12 voices by Hans Leo Hassler. Also a monumental piece of work. Because of the nature and duration of the work it is separately available in this series.
