Scorrete lagrime mie, flow my tears: tears of sorrow, of joy, pious tears, tears of longing, of betrayal, of dying and of life. The sacred and secular monodies from the 16th and 17th centuries are ideally suited to illustrate the vocal virtuosity of the trombone.
The originally vocal compositions are also supplemented by instrumental works.
Maximilien Brisson is accompanied here by Christophe Gauthier and Luc Beausejour on organ and harpsichord, who contribute a basso continuo that is both equal and indispensable.
