The Sixteen/Eamonn Dougan - Marcin Mielczewski: Deus, in nomine tuo, Benedictio et claritas, Missa O gloriosa domina

The fifth volume in this highly acclaimed series, conducted by The Sixteen�s Associate Conductor, Eamonn Dougan, celebrates the music of Polish composer Marcin Mielczewski. Together with Bart?omiej P?kiel, Mielczewski was amongst the most notable of 17th-century Polish composers and was recognised as a leader among his contemporaries. Influenced by the many Italian composers who graced the Polish courts in the 1600s, Mielczewski was a prolific composer. The cross-section of works recorded here shows an exceptionally accomplished musician at work, one whose music deserves a wider audience and who can confidently stand alongside the maestri who came before him and from whom he learnt his craft.
