The program brings together 17th-century Italian motets dedicated to the Virgin Mary, with works by Bassani, Cavalli, Grandi, Frescobaldi and Legrenzi. Jaroussky deploys his countertenor voice in pieces of Marian devotion where lyricism and virtuosity combine with the instrumental accompaniment of the Ensemble Artaserse.
