Info zu Morales: Requiem a 5 & Officium defunctorum
De Profundis ist ein 20-köpfiger Männerchor, der sich auf geistliche Musik der kontinentalen Renaissance spezialisiert hat. Die vom Guardian als "herausragend" bezeichnete Gruppe tritt mit den weltweit führenden Dirigenten für Alte Musik auf. De Profundis ist in der britischen und spanischen Presse sehr geschätzt und tritt regelmäßig bei spanischen Festivals auf. Im Jahr 2022 initiierte De Profundis ein Projekt, bei dem die vollständigen Messen und Magnificats von Cristóbal de Morales, dem Begründer der spanischen Renaissance-Schule, aufgeführt und aufgenommen werden sollen. Das erste Album dieser Reihe mit dem Titel „Morales: Missa Mille regretz & Missa Desilde al cavallero“ wurde mit einem Diapason d'Or ausgezeichnet. Dieser zweite Band enthält die fünfstimmige Requiem-Messe sowie das berühmte „Parce mihi, Domine”.

De Profundis
Founded by Mark Dourish in 2011, De Profundis is a male-voice early music ensemble based in Cambridge, UK, which focusses exclusively on Renaissance church music from continental Europe.
It has long been known that the choirs of continental churches and chapels in the 16th and 17th centuries were entirely male ensembles where the top musical line was sung by falsettists or boys, (and, latterly, castrati) or a combination of these. The next line down was sung by high tenors. Given the personnel, the music was sung at a lower pitch than we are used to with today’s female-led choirs. In founding De Profundis, Mark took the historical choirs as his model (although ruling out using castrati). It was his hope that performing the music at lower pitch, and using the voice types that would have been expected at the time, would achieve a sound that was closer to what the composer had in mind than what is offered by most performing groups today.
There are no other semi-professional or professional choirs that exclusively perform this repertoire and perform it in this way, and certainly none that uses amateurs in its ranks. As the distinguished musicologist Hugh Keyte has stated, “De Profundis is a choir that needed to be founded.” The members of the choir are hand-picked and include some of the best amateur and young professional singers in the South-East of England.
Another distinguishing feature of how the group works is that they do not have a fixed musical director, but instead bring in expert conductors for specific projects. They limit themselves entirely to the finest early music conductors in the world. Past and future directors include Andrew Parrott, Andrew Carwood, David Skinner, Robert Hollingworth and Eamonn Dougan.
In 2014 the group performed and recorded the complete salvageable works of Bernardino de Ribera (maestro at Ávila cathedral and early teacher of Tomás Luis de Victoria). The disc was released the following year on Hyperion Records. The group later took their Ribera programme to the El Greco Music Festival in Toledo. Their second CD, sacred music by Sebastián de Vivanco, was released in 2018, and was highly praised in Gramophone magazine and on BBC Radio 3’s Record Review programme. It won 5 stars in Diapason, France’s leading classical music journal, and was listed as one of the Discs of the Year in El Páis. In 2019 the choir undertook their second Spanish tour, performing in Ávila and Salamanca cathedrals, and at the International Music Festival at Las Navas del Marqués. Their third CD, featuring music by Juan Esquivel, was released in Spring 2020, to warm reviews on radio, online and in print. They are now engaged in a 12-year project to perform and record the complete masses and Magnificats of the great Spanish Renaissance composer Cristóbal de Morales.
