Decca Classics announces the release of the first in a trilogy of recordings from the internationally acclaimed vocal ensemble Stile Antico to celebrate major anniversaries of three Renaissance masters. The first in the series, The Golden Renaissance: Josquin des Prez, released today, 29th January 2021, is dedicated to the Franco-Flemish composer to mark the 500th anniversary of his death. 

The series features stunning repertoire presented in Dolby Atmos for the first time, with this release featuring a world premiere recording of Josquin's chanson, Vivrai je tousjours. 

One of the most important composers of the Renaissance, Josquin's remarkable developments in polyphonic vocal music defined the genre for all those who followed him. In an era of cultural revolution and discovery throughout Europe, this trailblazer is widely considered the first musical master of the High Renaissance.

Also several works survive commemorating his death, and two (by Vinders and Jacquet of Mantua) are included on the disc. Was this Renaissance mass inspired by the roll of a die? Stile Antico has much experience in this early repertoir...
