Carlo Gesualdo (1566 1613) composed "Merce grido piangendo" as part of his fifth book of madrigals in 1611. Gesualdo, who was the prince of Venosa, Italy, is best known for his intensely chromatic vocal pieces. Despite being composed at the end of the Renaissance, his works sound very modern even to today's listeners. Originally scored for five voices (SAATB), this highly expressive work has been expertly arranged for brass quintet by L. C. Harnsberger. This arrangement skillfully incorporates expressive phrasing and dynamics, enhancing the emotional depth of the music and making it a perfect addition to any performance. (duration 3:35)
