Josquin’s music here sounds beautiful—and also energetic, passionate, sarcastic, serene, and silly. From new scholarly editions Cut Circle offers fresh interpretations of modern-day classics like Miserere mei deus, Scaramella, and Ave Maria…virgo serena. The album also delves into lesser-known works that deserve to be appreciated on the same footing: pieces like Une musque de Biscaye and Virgo salutiferi that showcase Josquin’s brilliance, versatility, and power.
